Nice! This ought to make it much easier to find styles.

Suggestion: any chance you can put this code in it's own repo on
github, such that ti's easy for I and others to make suggested changes
(say to the CSS)?

Yes, let me get back to you on this. Essentially we need to back this
issue up with some JSON sample data.

OK, thanks.

While we're on this, do you have any thoughts on two bigger,
longer-term, issues?

1) versioning -  https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/issues/7

2) ids - https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/issues/2

So far I haven't really done anything on either.
