Dear Jabref Users,

this is an important information for everyone who is or has been using the CSA: 
Cambridge Science Abstracts or the ASAF: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries format.

While creating unit tests for the CSA (Cambridge Science Abstract) importer 
(CsaImporter.java), I could not find the website for the CSA format, mentioned 
in the code comments. It seems that the CSA website (csa.com) has gone offline 
and has been transfered to a new site called proquest.com. Unfortunetely I 
could not find any exporting option on proquest.com matching the CSA format. 
Searching for the ASAF format also refered to the proquest website which also 
does not have a explicit ASAF export option.

Therefore it seems to me that there is no point in keeping an importer for a 
format which refers to a specific website which is not available anymore. 
However if you do use the CSA format and know a different source on where to 
obtain a file with such format, I would kindly ask you to respond to this email 
prior to next weeks Tuesday the 8th of December 2015. If there is no answer 
before the 8th of December 2015 I will open a pull request to remove the 
importer. 

Best regards,
Tobias Boceck
