Actually, i know a program that does the job '=C3=A0 la endnote', multi=20
platform, multi word processor, bibus.

http://bibus-biblio.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

I've not checked extensively, but in coordination with refdb, the goal=20
was to set up a working refdb repository and allow bibus to use it=20
(instead of its own mysql db).

After, bibus can be sued to insert citations into Word, OpenOffice.org.

But some coding is needing, and i'm lacking two major ressources:
- good coding skills
- time ...
