Ok. If anyone is strongly against this, please say so. I've set the jabref-users mailing list as the preferred support mechanism (not sure how many users see that information, though). If we decide to shut down the forums, I'll post a message to each, advising that it will be closed soon, and that messages should be posted to the mailing list instead. -- Morten ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
