It shows the existence of normal Fefferman constructions over CR and Lagrangian contact structures corresponding to holonomy reductions to SO(4,2) and SO(3,3), respectively. There is also a fascinating construction of a `dual' distribution when the holonomy reduces to $G_2'$. The paper concludes with some holonomy constructions for free $n$-distributions for $n>3$.a corrected and improved version, 24 pagesDifferential Geometry53B05, 53B15, 32V99, 58J70, 58A30, 53A30text
