Re: [Jabref-users] key generation issues with shorttitle:abbr

[Oliver K. <kop...@gm...>]

Dear Ebo,

The mailinglist is closing down and we recommend to use
http://discourse.jabref.org/

Regarding your concrete point, I did not find any issue at
https://github.com/jabref/jabref/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue%20is%3Aopen%20shorttile

Could you please file an issue at
https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues so that we can keep track?

Reason for that: We have so many issues to solve and try to prioritize
them. When an issue is not filed at
https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues, it does not get into our
prioritization queue and the likely hood that it is solved is very low
- unfortunately.

Cheers,

Oliver
