I've authored a new page on laying out pages in ConText. This page will be just one in a number of pages on using ConTeXt with XML.
The new page can be found at

I would appreciate any feedback. I hope the page will be useful in helping others overcome some of the difficulty I had in trying to understand layout in ConTeXt. I believe it is very thorough. I hope it is clear (it contains many illustrations) and accurate.
I put this page up on yahoo because it had so many graphics, and because trying to cut and paste the entire page to the wiki would have been too difficult. The yahoo location is just temporary. Probably I will create a sourceforge project to host the page.
