A few weeks ago, I have created a conf file generator (confmaker.pl) which is in sword-tools. It is a perl script which analyses a given OSIS text and creates a conf file from it. It looks for certain tags and creates the relevant OSIS filter options and creates some other entries. Basically a conf file created with it works, but would always benefit from some human interaction and augmentation. To move on from here towards bibliography enytries we need to get some clarity re direction of bibliography entries. I do not really care about the exact format (though I still think bibtex or some xml-ish format would be fine), but - whatever - I do propose to restrict our support to a few important entries: Title Author, Translator, Editor Publisher Year of original publication Place of original publication Electronic publisher (i.e. CrossWire, Xiphos, etc) Anything I forgot?
