Re: [O] org-ref in action

Hello Jonhn, hello the list,

I have already used org-bibtex (and ox-bibtex) and I have just tried to use org-ref . Is it possible that a conflict exists between the former(s) and the latter?
My links for example are not clickable and the link to the default bibliography does not work at all... But I have started from an older org file used with org-bibtex.

Your help is welcome : could you show us a minimal file in order  to test org-ref ?

Best wishes,

Jo.

Some features could be merged, but there is an important difference in that org-ref uses bibtex as the backend database, and reftex for searching, and org-bibtex uses org-mode headings as the backend database, and tag/property searches (I think).  It is like the difference between org-contacts and bbdb. They both serve similar needs, but with different data sources, and different ways to think about it.

We might be able to figure out a way to specify a "backend" that would allow the independent features to work in both though.

+1 for org-bibtex (and ox-bibtex) that I'm using for a couple of years.

But org-ref seems to go further (video is convincing). 
It would be really nice to merge org-ref and org-bibtex before they split too far apart.
Wishful thinking from me because I don't see that I'm in position to do it.

Well, you can count on one big fan of org-bibtex.el here! (Though I must
admit that I have not used ox-bibtex.el.)

Thanks! Over the years, I've particularly appreciated the way
org-bibtex.el makes it easy to keep bib data together with notes/todos.
Both org-bibtex-read and org-bibtex-yank have become indispensable to my
own workflow.

Best,
Matt
