Importing the attached .bib file causes my version (1.6.2) of BibDesk to crash. I believe it is due to the umlaut in the author's name, as removing this and importing the file again succeeded.

    I can't tell if my files attached correctly, sorry. I am trying again here.

    The problem has to do with the cite key, not the author. An unmlaut is not allowed in the cite key, therefore this is invalid bibtex. So even with the crasher fixed this will still not open, but that is not our problem. Of course it should not crash, but that should already be fixed in the latest nightly builds.
