hi there, that's a great idea! I think simplicity and ease of adding stuff is key. I love tex but not sure it's not a shared feeling among my colleagues. Why not using a simple GitHub repository and list papers there in (simpler) Markdown? that would not be binded to someone/some structure in particular but built/share by all of us. and combined with pandoc we would still be able to generate html, tex, whatever we want.
by the way, I think we could (should?) do the same for data. I'd be very happy to discuss it with anyone interested. all the best, vincent 2016-03-09 16:57 GMT+01:00 Robert Z.
