Since the main motivation of my work was to contribute to org-mode's citation rendering I also implemented a "proof of concept" add-on to org-ref that uses citeproc-el to render org-ref citation links for non-LaTeX (and optionally even LaTeX) export backends (see https://github.com/andras-simonyi/citeproc-orgref). Both packages are in a relatively early stage of their development so I'd be grateful to receive any feedback on them. In particular, in citeproc-orgref I had to abuse the cite link descriptions to an even greater degree than they were by org-ref to accommodate the full CSL representation of citations (citations consist of cites and each cite can have a prefix, postfix and a locator). The resulting link syntax is rather cumbersome so I'd like to ask your opinion about introducing an alternative org-mode citation syntax that handles all of these elements. One option would be to use something very similar to pandoc's citation syntax (which I tried to follow as much as possible in the cite link descriptions of citeproc-orgref). A more general question I'd like to raise how (or whether) you see citeproc-el's (and CSL's) potential place in the org-mode ecosystem. There are a lot of directions which the further development could take (BibLaTeX support, citeproc-YAML bibliographies, CSL editing and CSL extensions etc.) and I'd be grateful to receive your input on which ones I should focus on. thanks in advance & best wishes, András Simonyi
