Perhaps one of them would be cloning the default LaTeX style and include it into standard ConTeXt distribution. I guess this would be one reason more for LaTeX people to switch.

I agree I would be a very nice thing to have!
The main LaTeX "classes" to emulate would be:
- article
- rapport
- book

But this is much work for somebody who is more interested by the content
of its document than by the envelope.
So this thing (context template) will take much time in collaborating.

What kind of stuff do we need for, say, an "article" LaTeX class?

   \usemodule[latex]
   \usemodule[latexarticle]

It would look like this:

  % be like a standard latex class
  \setuplayout[margins=verywide]
  \setuphead[font=too_large,before=enormous_gap,after=big_gap]
  \setupalign[never]
  \setupfloats[location=trailing]
  % uncomment next line for report.cls headline
  % \setupheader[style=obnoxious]
  \endinput

:-)

There must be at least some decent LaTeX layouts out there,
surely there is no need to emulate the default classes?

Greetings,

Taco
