Is there a way to use Lua on BREW 3.0 platform?

It looks like BREW 4.0 will have Lua included. But is it possible to use Lua on older BREW 3.0 (or even BREW 2.0)?

We don't wait BREW 4.0. We are writing our LuaBREW implementation right now.

We did this. I ported Lua to BREW turning it into a uiOne actor. Worked well, took about 3 days to get it working properly, mostly on the actor side. As far as I recall there was nothing in there that wouldn't have worked on BREW 2.1.

It is possible, but you will have to link lua interpreter source code to your application source code and wrap BREW API functions in order to use them from lua scripts.

Check out LuaBREW project as an example of approach I briefly explained above.
