Stefano, thanks for the reply. This command has a very weird behavior: when I set it to \placepublications[before={\setupwhitespace[0pt]}] I still get too little whitespace between items. When I set it to any value, like \placepublications[before={\setupwhitespace[.1pt]}] I get a blank of approx. half a line. But I can't achieve what I want: exactly the same interlinespace within items and between items. So it must be something hidden somewhere in the macros.

Thomas,
I was able to set the spacing between items in the publications list by using
\placepublications[before={\setupwhitespace[5pt]}]
Using \setupwhitespace before \placepublications did not work for me.

Thanks Taco!
Actually, the \switchtobodyfont works even with \completepublications.
But the spacing seems to have a problem even in newer versions --I use the latest and greatest:
TeXExec 5.2.5 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005
texexec : TeXExec 5.2.5 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) context : ver: 2005.03.16 cont-en : ver: 2005.03.16 fmt: 2005.3.23 mes: english
Nevertheless, the space between items in the publicationlist is slightly smaller than between normal lines. You can observe it best if you set the interlinespace to something like 5ex.
I tried something like
\setuppublicationlist [after={\vskip2pt}]
but this is just a guesstimate and will have to be adapted when I change the bodyfont or the interlinespace.
On an unrelated note: A couple of months ago, somebody posted about problems with cross-references. You supplied a workaround then:
\setbox0\vbox{\placepublications} \completepublications
This still works, but any chance that the bug will be fixed?
But most importantly: thanks for providing this wonderful tool!

I've been playing with Taco's bibmodule, and I'm absolutely thrilled how easy it is to customize things. Once you've groked how things work, you can simply copy code from bibl-apa.tex and modify, it's just wonderful (OT: what does "apa" stand for in this abbreviation? For me, it's the American Philological Association, but I guess that's not meant here.)

1. Is there a general option to have the publicationlist typeset in a smaller font size? The default seems to be the general bodyfont, but I couldn't see where this could be modified.
The easiest solution is not to use \completepublications, but \placepublications, something like this (untested):
\section{References} \switchtobodyfont[8pt] \placepublications
2. The space between the items does not follow the normal interlinespace, but is fixed to a somewhat smaller value, which looks a bit bizarre. Is there any way to modify this behavior.
I believe this may depend a bit on your ConTeXt & bib module version(s).
The current one looks fine (I think), but I know for a fact that there have been some problems with older versions, and perhaps they have not been resolved properly. See the options to \setuplist in texshow, if you want to tweak the spacing between items, you can use all those options inside a \setuppublicationlist command.
