In the context of bibligraphies, I have been looking at two topics that were the subject of presentations at one of the last TUG meetings, namely, Bibulus MLBibTeX Bibulus interests me because it creates bibliographies directly in XML. MLBibTeX interests me because of its extended encoding (it is billed as "European style bibliography"). In either case, at this time they are for developers only: neither is ready for prime time use (though you can download packages and "play" with them). On the other hand, they seem to be getting *very* close to prime time readiness. Conclusion: if ConTeXt is going to undertake some work concerning "the bibliography", it might be a good idea to consider how that work might tie in with Bibulus or MLBibTeX, or both. This said as an after thought to what Mojca said. Best, elena
