There was a (short) discussion on about this under the thread "croffref
in bibtex" 2006-03-23 seq, see esp. Bruce d'Arcus' contribution
http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2006/017019.html
Pro
+ having a standard bib format for ConTeXt
+ MODS is a standard format for bibliographers
+ it is XML-based
+ BibTeX conversion already exists (at least on Unix) via
bibutils:
http://www.scripps.edu/~cdputnam/software/bibutils/bibutils2.html
Con
- it seems the MODS is quite complex (= a lot of work)
See also Bruce's comment.
IMHO Bruce's own RDF-based approach looks rather promising, too, see
http://xbiblio.sourceforge.net/csl/
Perhaps one should contact him to check the projects progess
My thoughts.
Cheers
Ulf
