Besides some minor issues concerning citing styles, it does fix a critical bug in the autentication process. Detected by Emilio Quintana and solved (thank you!) by Wu Jiewen, the problem was that the lenght of the password field was too short for MySQL 4.1, that needed ... http://bibciter.sourceforge.net/?p=34 Uh, there was a problem with a search filter that made that filter not to work properly (actually, didn't work at all). So we fixed it. And improved some searching routines too. Download BibCiter v1.3.1 http://bibciter.sourceforge.net/?p=33 New release - version 1.3 - comes full of new features: RSS feeds Besides the existing feature to subscribe to the new works on the site, now: added RSS feed for each author added RSS feed for each category added RSS feed for each bibliography improved the way RSS for new works worked.
