[Bibtexml-users] Integrating Bibtexml As Plugin Into JabRef

[Kariem H. <ka...@us...>]

Hi,

This message is intended to inform you that bibtexml can soon be used
as a plugin in JabRef. I have cc'ed the committer, Christopher Oezbek
and the jabref-devel list. For details read on.

JabRef [1] is a BibTex-based reference manager written in Java. In
order to have a nicely formatted export to a docbook bibliography I
proposed providing a configurable export to XML. The JabRef users
mailing list pointed out [2] that bibtexml was a mature project that
already provided this functionality based on a bibtex file.

I worked on the proposal and presented a solution on the JabRef
feature requests tracker [3]. Based on this proposal, Christopher
Oezbeck integrated the new feature into JabRef's code base [4].

Thank you for the work on bibtexml. I believe that JabRef users can
benefit from the results. Please contact me, if you have feedback on
the provided solution.

Greetings,
Kariem
