Re: Jurabib and Biblatex

Dear Charles,

Yes, I've started to look at this package.  For the moment, Jurabib  
produces superior results for one simple reason: the 'Oxford' style  
is well implemented in Jurabib.  For the moment, no one seems to have  
written useful styles for 'Oxford', 'CMS' or other humanities  
styles.  So while the promise of easy customisation exists, Biblatex  
appears to be just the building-blocks for a potentially excellent  
system, rather than something immediately useful.

Best wishes,

N.

If you have a problem, please provide a complete minimal example document (with a small bibliography database), which runs out of he box without any superfluous packages loaded, otherwise we could not help.
