In LaTeX, there is a form of metadata common to many classes, known as the <tt>\thanks</tt> command. It is essentially an un-numbered footnote that comes out of sequence with the rest of the footnotes. It can be simulated in ConTeXt simply by defining another note type (see <cmd>setupfootnotes</cmd> for a rough idea of the available parameters):

<texcode>

</texcode>

And used with the usual note and referencing commands:

\stoptext

</context>
