I use a lot of mathematics i.e a lot of integral symbols (\oint, \oiint, 
\oiiint ) for my documentation.
I could not find the corresponding Context math symbols. I suppose they 
are not defined as yet ?

Furthermore I use a small tex module written by David Munger and which I 
posted
on this newsgroup a couple of days ago to define some of these math 
symbols.
I was wondering can one switch back and forth using the mechanism of

\enablemathcollection[collection 1]
\usemathcollection[collection 1]

Some math .....

\enablemathcollection[collection 2]
\usemathcollection[collection 2]

Some math .....

Thanks for the help

Kind regards
