I had a (very) quick look at CSL, and it seems to be a good way of
expressing the bibliography structure - what my plugin uses the
STRUCTURE section (and PROPERTIES, as well) of the style file for (if
you looked at my page). I don't like introducing an arbitrary new type
of style files, so I'll definitely be interested in applying CSL
instead.

There are two other links needed for the interaction: first, where is
the information specified by CSL coming from? In JabRef's case, it
comes from BibTeX fields, filtered by JabRef's formatters (as in the
FORMATTERS section of my style file). I guess we would need to find
some other place (outside of the CSL) for this information?

The other thing is whether OpenOffice will support CSL, or if we need
to transform it ourselves into OO's bibliography structure? I
understand that this could possibly be a difficult question to answer
at the moment.
