Thanks, that's nice to hear!  It's also a good way to preface a  
feature request :).

This looks like it would be really easy to parse.  Christiaan, post if  
you start working on it; otherwise I'll take a look at it later  
today.  No point in duplicating effort.

Holger, if you can find a specification of types and field  
descriptions (e.g. does Accession Number map to anything in BibTeX?),  
that would be helpful.  Also, are there any fields that can generally  
be ignored?

In fact, adding to this file

https://bibdesk.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/bibdesk/trunk/bibdesk/TypeInfo.plist

would be most helpful, following the general pattern for  
BibTeXFieldNamesForWebOfScienceTags and  
BibTeXTypesForWebOfScienceTypes (for example).  Post back if you have  
questions about the format (it's UTF-8 text).
