The before and after keys control the spacing around enumerations. It you want to achieve something similar to the itemize-option "packed" then use: (MKIV example)
<context source=yes text="This gives:">
\defineenumeration[Packed]
\setupenumerations
[Packed]
[text=,
headstyle=normal,
alternative=left,
distance=0pt,
width=13pt,
stopper=\high{o},
before=\blank[small]},
after={\blank[small]},
inbetween=]
\Packed
First issue
\Packed
Second issue
</context>
