Alan,
thanks for your speedy reply. Actually, I also dislike the scattered
specification of `eprint` and `archivePrefix`, but thought that it might
be better to keep it for interoperability between ConTeXt and biblatex.
The solution you sent to me works nicely and looks very clean. I will
repeat it here, because you only sent it to me personally instead of the
list and it might be helpful to other people, so here it is:
@electronic{Kudryashov2016,
title = {Normal State of the Metallic Hydrogen Sulfide},
author = {Kudryashov, Nikolay A. and Kutukov, Alexander A. and
Mazur, Evgeny A.},
year = {2016},
howpublished = {arxiv:1607.04624},
url = {http://arxiv.org/abs/1607.04624},
}
I think it would be advantageous to also have the eprint/howpublished
field available for @article such that I can link the arXiv even though
an article has been published. This way people without subscription to
a specific journal can readily access the preprint (open-access
philosophy). Do you consider this a viable option?
Cheers,
Henri
