I'm especially thrilled by the \cite[right=] command and hope it works! One major (but probably easy-to-fix) problem is that your wonderfully clear syntax {}{} isn't working anymore. Here's an example. I have this line in my setup for books: \insertseries{ (}{), }{, }% which used to work: if the entry has information about the series, put it in parentheses and append a comma, if it doesn't, just put the comma. With the new module, I get an extra (), after every title, and the same is true for other constructs. I have found this bug, and uploaded a new beta: http://tex.aanhet.net/bib/m-bib-beta-20050929.zip The output here looks a whole lot better now. One question: in the parsed bbl file, the bibtex field "address" is translated into "city," "publisher" into "pubname," and "year" into "pubyear." Is there a reason for this? I found it a bit confusing because you have a macro \insertpublisher which inserts "city, pubname"; coming from the names in the database, I couldn't figure out what was happening until I looked at the source. Would it be possible to just keep the fieldnames as bibtex has them? I did this originally to be compatible with the old context publications macros as well as the base tex definition of \year, and I guess it is no longer safe to change the names now. I bit of a mistake, in hindsight. :-( As for the vertical spacing problem: depending on the font and the settings for interlinespace, it is more or less visible. To see a really clear case, try setting the interlinespace to something really big like 5ex, then you can see that space within the entries is regular while space between entries is somewhat smaller. Not over here. with \showgrid on, everything is precisely lined up. That's why I really need an example of what you are doing.
