What is the current most contextish way for absolute positioning of text (still using MK II)? I have to create a title page for a document where several frameless boxes of text have to be placed on the page. Is this still the layer mechanism? I mean, ConTeXt evolves so quickly, being absent for one real year means being absent for about 10 ConTeXt-years.
