I'm not aware of any naming convention. I *personally* would have
choosen generate_bibtex since bibtex is a single word.

I rather consider a totally separate script which is called at the end of
scripts/cron_ftpnew_blends.sh
as the most flexible solution.

At the moment I have no time to test. I'd prefer I wait until you might
have regarded my hints and checkout afterwards. Is this OK for you?

Replace # by \#. I think UDD should remain as imported from the
original sources and the bibtex export code should export valid BibTeX
syntax. Does this sound sensible for you?

Ahhh, hmmm, I think I need some more detailed explanation what you meain
by the last sentence. Do you mean "include it into the data table" or
"include it into the postgresql procedure that extracts the data". We
should do all needed syntax changes in the same manner.

If (and only if) Umegaya works correctly than the references in
bibref_gatherer and in blends_prospective_gatherer should be the same.
May be the problem with Umegaya vanished for whatever reason
(temporarily??). Since Upsert does not seem any harm we should probably
use it and be safe for future failures.
