For the moment, I am abusing initializepublist, mainly because it 
resets some options in \setuplist[pub] and I am against a hard 
deadline. This is my bib setup for IEEE style (well atleast in terms 
of font and spacing, the actual formatting of enteries will have to 
wait) bibliography. There is some spurious white space between 
enteries, and as a temp hack, I use \vskip -0.5\baselineskip. I will 
debug more carefully over the weekend and send you a bibl-ieee.tex


\setuppublications
   [alternative=num,monthconversion=month,sorttype=bib]
\setupbibtex          [sort=author]
\setuppublicationlist [maybeyear=off]
\setuppublicationlist
   [numbercommand=\withbrackets,margin=1em,distance=1em,width=fit]
\setuppublicationlist
   [before={\vskip -0.5\baselineskip},after=,inbetween=]
\setupcite      [num] [compress=yes]

\def\initializepubslist
   {\switchtobodyfont[small]
    \setupinterlinespace
    \setupwhitespace[none]
    \vskip 0.5\baselineskip}
