  1. I’m not sure what you mean by meta-data, there, Andromeda. From what I can tell, it’s repackaging the same metadata (author, date, title, etc.) in a variety of formats. And though I didn’t recognize most of those formats, the ones I do recognize (HTML citation, ASCII citation, BiBTeX, EndNote) seem like commonly used citation formats or citation/reference-management software. There are a lot of systems out there for handling references and citations, and it seems nice of them to pre-package the meta-data in as many of these formats as they do…
