Hi Benjamin!
I totally agree with the usecase you outlined above. The only thing I
would like to make clear here is:
(1) vocabulary definition
(2) notation definition
What you described above is a need to properly extend the BibJSON
*vocabulary* (multiple affiliation attributes, etc); which is what is
needed, and I am natually fine with that.
However, what we have to take care about is everything related to the
textual outline of a text corpus (like the author string example above).
All proposed solutions to date are targeting the definition of the
notation. I personally think that it should target the definition of the
vocabulary for the reasons I outlined on the " structured string use
cases - as requested by Jack/Fred on tech conf call 2009-11-10 " thread
on this forum.
Thanks!
Take care,
Fred
