Hallöchen!

I've started

https://www.ohloh.net/p/pyrefdb and
https://www.ohloh.net/p/django-refdb

however, I need at least basic functionality as soon as possible, so
I ask here whether someone is willing to help.  The goal is to have
something like http://www.refbase.net but with Django integration,
simpler interface and RefDB citation lists.

I want to have adding/editing/searching references, PDF upload,
citation lists, and Endnote/BibTeX export for the first milestone.
Then it would work for me.  But on the long run, things like mass
import, different ways to browse through notes, and edit permissions
are desirable.

RefDB handles all the data.  As long as there is no compelling need
for it, the Django app contains no database models.

The communication is realised though risx which is converted to
full-fledged Python objects.

So far, basic communication with the RefDB server works well, but it
returns everything as RIS strings instead of convenient objects.
This is the next construction site.

The frame for the Django application is already running, it can
create RefDB users from Django users automatically, and the
connection to RefDB is working.

Anybody interested?

Tschö,
Torsten.
