ah.  that's really excellent, thank you.  This also pointed me to
wiki/Bibliographic_Document_XML_Format which I had skimmed over
before, but is now much clearer to me.

FYI, I just changed the bib example to reflect the current direction of where I hope ODF is headed:

<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/ Bibliographic_Document_XML_Format#biblo-data.xml>

I have to say the changes to the file format look so simple and manifestly superior to the current
setup that it's astonishing they haven't been approved yet.

Well, big companies move slowly, and they don't want to make changes specific to our project when more general solutions can be found. Those take time.

Also CiteProc is working right now using data stored in an eXist xml database. The quickest way to build something that works would be to build a xforms
based browser to work with eXist and a function to inset the selected
citation into Writer.


I know nothing about Xforms.  Is this something that could be built,
as it were, from within OOo?  Or are you talking about a separate
application?

OOo has built in XForms support in 2.0. The problem is it's really designed for end users.
