Chin up, Jonathan. I am hoping to attend one of these precisely because I want to talk about how I /wish /my workflow looked, and dream about tools that would make my life easier - ideas on what this type of core system *should* incorporate. I can't be the only one. Anna H. Jonathan

Hi all, John, the supplemented approach you describe is how we go about it in our Lemon8-XML (L8X) software (http://pkp.sfu.ca/lemon8); The way L8X handles parsing is it passes the original unparsed string to a number of different parsers in turn (Freecite, each of the 3 Paracite
