Re: [O] Managing articles in orgmode and collaboration

[Christoph Groth]

Hi again,

I’m replying to myself, as I think I’ve found a possible solution 
to my
problem.

Most publications have some kind of unique ID that can be present 
in
BibTeX: a DOI number, a ISBN, a preprint ID, or an URL.  One could 
use
one these fields as an org-id unique ID for the publication’s
org-mode-entry.  (If several such fields are present, priorities 
could
be used to choose one.)  Then, org-id can be used to find article
entries by unique ID.

This way, even if a reference has been added to a project-specific
.bib-file by a collaborator (with some label of his choice), it 
should
be possible to find the relevant org-mode-entry if the paper is 
already
anywhere in the library.  In the worst case, a missing DOI id will 
have
to be added to the .bib-file-entry.

The org entry on the article would contain links and notes.  The 
BibTeX
data could be kept in a :BIBTEX: drawer.

Any comments?

Christoph
