1. {} ≠ [], see \defineconversion
2. To end a paragraph use empty lines, \\ is wrong
<example>
\defineconversion[fnsym][\m{\dagger},\m{*},\m{**},\m{***}]
\setupnotation[footnote][numberconversion=fnsym] % change footnote symbols
\setupnote [footnote][rule=off] % disbale the rule before the footnote block
\starttext
This is a footnote\footnote{a fnote}
And another for clarity\footnote{the 2nd footnote.}
\stoptext
</example>
