Hans,

I see on the wiki that MKIV has bibliography reenabled.
I put this code in my document:

\setupbibtex[database={mybib},sort=author]



text
text
text

\completepublications[criterium=all]
\placepublications[criterium=all]

but the references are ordered by occurance NOT alphabetical by author.

Could you point me in the right direction to get the list alphabetically  
sorted please?
