Agree on the following: - We need really well defined use cases. We have a long list of support requests, and feature requests at Mendeley so I can start to break those down by use case type. Charles, I guess you guys have similar for Papers?
- +1 on looking to integrate a test suite. - I like the point about deciding on the direction of approach. As many of you know, we tried before to go bottom up and it didn't work because we failed to capture the hierarchical structure of the CSL specification. Our first step in this project is going to be to work on these use cases before we think about cutting code. I want to spend time examining the excellent set of tools that are out there already. I'm aware of the following tools: Dev resources listed here: http://citationstyles.org/citation-style-language/development/ Processors listed here: http://citationstyles.org/citation-style-language/processors/ Prototype lookup service: http://steveridout.com/cslEditor/cslFinder/ Prototype CSL code viewier http://steveridout.com/cslEditor/ Naive WYSIWYG implementation (the one that didn't work out): http://csleditor.quist.de/csleditor/show/2/another-example-citation-style What else should I be looking at? - Ian - Ian On 19 January 2012 21:23, Charles Parnot <[email protected]> wrote: >> Yes, good point here.
