No, it used -[BDSKPublicationArray publicationsForAuthor:], which  
used -pubAuthors. ON the othr hand changing the name changed every  
author in every field, with the comment that it did so because there  
was no way to get the field.

What do you mean by 'any person'? You mean any person field?

I have not really test it. Looks like it would be mostly OK, keeping  
in mind the restrictions from the comments. But shouldn't the tmp  
file always be removed, a file in a tmp location is not really useful  
as a backup file.
