I may be crazy, but has anyone considered building a

formatting etc, but getting the mechanics of the citation processing
down)
It seems to me that the grounding of developing a working system would
help the great discussions that are happening now---sometimes it is
just simpler to see it in code. It also seems that the complexity and
dependancies inherent in working with the OOo base are holding back
the project.
Yeah, that makes sense, though I'd point point out that pieces like
citeproc are exactly this sort of proof-of-concept. So it can be
figuring out smaller pieces ...
