Hello! Writing in Germany, there is a large amount of possible "styles" of references, almost nothing like MLA etc. seems to be accepted. One is just happy if one's supervisor accepts what we can give him with jurabib. One of the things not common is inclusion of publishers in either references or bibliographies. A more detailed documentation (of all the possible modifications) about the powers of jurabib aimed at historians would be most welcome. The documentation is quite good already but not everything is covered. An essential would be @archival and it's application. For example: what is the best use of the different fields @archival provides? What is "archivename" for – in comparison to "archive" etc. Maybe we should collect working examples of putting it to use – master-setups of jurabib to accomplish given tasks (aimed at historians of middle-ages, modern times, contemporary etc.) taking in account American, UK, French an German (etc.) background.
