Re: biblatex native support

I'm bringing this up again with another idea: Would you consider adding support, either through a layout file or the document settings menu, for the inclusion of auxiliary files that need to be copied to the temporary folder where and whenever LaTeX compilation takes place. This is a possible s

Summer of Code of proposals for the Biblatex native support project, but both received very low scores from the developers. In other words, there was little confidence that either would succeed. If we go again for GSOC next year, we may have better luck. Stefano -- ___

Dear developers, I apologize for asking the same question over and over again. I'm still wondering if there was any progress with native biblatex support in LyX. I'm maintaining a package that should switch to biblatex soon, the only problem is that we can't offer it our users as a hack that ne

Dear developers, There's a nice feature missing in Lyx which I'd like to know the development status of. Biblatex is so much better than bibtex, yet there's no native support for it in LyX. Why is it so? How difficult would it be to extend the code for bibtex to biblatex? Could you make this a
