RFS: crosstex

[Robert Burgess <burgess@systems.cs.cornell.edu>]

I am seeking a sponsor for CrossTeX, maintained by myself and Emin Gun
Sirer <egs@systems.cs.cornell.edu>.

  Package name    : crosstex
  Version         : 0.5.3
  Upstream Author : Robert Burgess <burgess@systems.cs.cornell.edu
  URL             : http://crosstex.sourceforge.net/
  License         : GPL
  Section         : tex

CrossTeX is a modern, object-oriented bibliography management tool,
designed to replace BibTex. It comprises a new bibliographic database
format that is much less prone to error compared to other alternatives
like BibTex, and a new tool for creating the citations that appear at
the end of scholarly texts that is very flexible. It is written in
Python and thus platform-independent and is written to be easy to extend
with new styles, objects, and fields.

It builds one, platform-independent, package, crosstex, and linda and
lintian have no complaints.  The upload would fix this bug: 428841.

The URL above has a link to download the source tarballs and Debian
package information from the CrossTeX SourceForge project page.

Thank you for your consideration.

Robert
