We should agree on the specifications, and probably a deadline, for out first release. David suggested these requirements for the first release:
- Allows the user to enter, modify, delete, and search for bibliographic entries in a database
- Able to render a complete or partial bibliography in several formats (MLA, etc.)
- Can read from and write to Bibtex format (would support for other formats be useful?).
Also, we need to decide which version of the Java Runtime Environment should be needed to run the application. The code I've already written runs on Java 1.1, but I don't have any strong opinions on whether we should keep it this way. I guess it might be an advantage, though, to keep it as compatible as possible.
