Rafael Bohrer �vila <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> described the package as follows: License: gpl Other License: Package: OmniBib System name: omnibib Type: non-GNU Description: OmniBib is a peer-to-peer framework for sharing bibliographic databases. The idea is that each individual maintains his own database (e.g. a BibTeX file) and makes it available to the OmniBib network by means of a dedicated server. This server is accessible by OmniBib users, who can search for and fetch the references they need. The server also has the capability of contacting other servers if the needed references are not found locally. Client-side software retrieves a number of references from a given server and formats it as needed; the typical usage is to fetch bibliographic entries from the OmniBib network and hand it to a local BibTeX program, in the form of a .bib file, in order to process the citations of a LaTeX document. The goal of this project is to provide a working OmniBib environment as described above. We intend to implement the server functionality using Perl and at least a basic client program to be used in place of BibTeX. We do not yet have usable source code for download.
