Hi,

\startitemize[randomize] does not randomize properly (one entry at random 
is gobbled and another is repeated in its place). I guess that this is 
because of an off-by-one error somewhere.

Example (from: http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/65662/323)

     \defineitemgroup[institm]

     \setupinstitm[1][text, random]
     \setupinstitm[1][symbol=2, indentnext=no, intro=yes]

     \starttext

     \startTEXpage[offset=5mm]
     \bold{Contributions}
     \startinstitm
       \startitem Foo Pvt Ltd {\sc nsw} \stopitem
       \startitem Bar Pvt Ltd {\sc vic} \stopitem
       \startitem Baz Pvt Ltd {\sc abc} \stopitem
     \stopinstitm
     \stopTEXpage

     \stoptext

Aditya
