This is a very preliminary version of what will eventually hopefully become a core part of Context: an interface to bibtex and a standardized way of creating (scientific) publication lists. The (still partial) documentation is in m-bib.pdf. While I am still debugging and documenting this code, you are required to use a \usemodule[bib] command to load the commands and you have to run bibtex 'by hand'. Request: Please, if you are bored or intend to use this module in the future, have a look at it and tell me what you think. It's a lot of code and it's quite likely that there are still a (large ?) number of bugs in it. DONT USE for production yet! I only uploaded this because I need beta tester feedback. The (currently only) defined reference style (bibl-apa) is more or less apa-like, but I am well aware that there are some improvements that should be made to that file. (set "criterium=all" in the example below to see what I mean). The current version is *not* multi-lingual (in fact it will only work in the english version of context) and for some reason I don't yet understand the 'normal' (non e-)TeX chokes on accents in stuff that might end up as an argument to \cite. I'll sort that out later. Right now I need a break from this (have not done anything else the past week and it is starting to become severely frustrating).
