Thank you,
I have an additional question. Is it possible to have the sum available
before the \question commands?
This is what I would do (but I suspect Wolfgang can come up
with something cleaner):
\def\startquestions
{\newcount\totalpoints}
\def\stopquestions
{\expanded{\reference[totalpoints]{\the\totalpoints}}}
\def\question#1#2{\global\advance\totalpoints #1\relax #2\par}
\starttext
Total points: \in[totalpoints]
\startquestions
\question{5}{text text}
\question{3}{text text}
\question{1}{text text}
\stopquestions
\stoptext
