Hi, John MacFarlane, the developper of Pandoc, has released a new Citeproc that generates citations and bibliographies using CSL style files (CSL= citation style language). While it is written in Haskell and while it's primarily intended for use with Pandoc, it can also be used in other contexts. Provided with a JSON encoded list of references via stdin, it can produce formatted output. I know that ConTeXt has its own infrastructure to format bibliographies and citations, but, given the enormous amount of available styles in CSL, I nevertheless think that this could be a worthwile addition. What would be necessary to make such a toll usable with ConTeXt? How complicated would that be? Best, Denis
