I opened a feature request on the tracker with the following message, but maybe it might be convenient to post it also to the mailing list (if not, I am sorry for the "cross-posting"):
Dear developers, I would like to bring to your attention the fact that the Spires search engine is being superseded by the Inspire search engine in September 2011. In particular, according to the Spires homepage, the website is going offline for good. Therefore it would be very welcome if anybody could work on adding the support for Inspire, the new incarnation of the High Energy Physics search engine. Inspire has different inner workings, but this should be transparent to JabRef. Inspire, just like Spires, still accepts text based queries (in a syntax which includes the old one as a subset), builds a search URL based on the query elements and returns a BibTeX output. I guess it might not be that hard to implement an INSPIREFetcher class by adapting the SPIRESFetcher class (I just had a look at the src code), but I have no Java development experience at all and I doubt I can really help (I could actually do some testing..). Thanks.
