Hi all,
I thought that \startbuffer and stopbuffer would cause grouping within 
the
buffer. e.g.
\startbuffer[mybuffer]
\switchtobodyfont[small]
   a bunch of text
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\section{First}
   \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\section{Second}
   \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\section{Third}
   \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\section{Fourth}
   \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\stoptext
Hi,

Some time ago I encountered the same problem (ConTeXt  ver: 2002.12.20  
fmt: 2003.1.21  int: english  mes: english) and since I didn't know 
whether this was a bug or some built in feature, I solved it by saying

\startbuffer[mybuffer]
\switchtobodyfont[small]

This is the content of mybuffer supposed to be in smaller type\dots

\setupbodyfont[ss,12pt]
\stopbuffer

\starttext
\section{First}
    \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\section{Second}
    \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\section{Third}
    \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\section{Fourth}
    \getbuffer[mybuffer]
\stoptext

I must admit that this is not a solution but a turn around!

Best regards: OK
