On Mon, 20 Feb 2012 Igor A. Kotelnikov submitted an update to the gost package. Summary description: BibTeX styles to meet State Standards (GOSTs) of Russia License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nGOST is a bundle of BibTeX styles designed to meet State Standards (GOST) on information, librarianship and publishing issued by The Russian Federation and Interstate Committee of former USSR States. It may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3 of this license or (at your option) any later version. The latest version of this license is in http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX version 2005/12/01 or later. GOST comprises 16 BibTeX styles to format bibliography in English, Russian and Ukrainian according to GOST 7.0.5-2008 and GOST 7.1-2003. Both 8-bit and Unicode (UTF-8) versions of each BibTeX style, in each case offering a choice of sorted and unsorted. Further, 2 more styles, |gost780| and |gost780s| styles (not conforming to effective standards) are retained for backwards compatibility. All BibTeX styles are derived from same master file |gost.dtx| by applying different set of options as shown in the table below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Style | utf8 | strict | modern | eprint | long | sort | natbib ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gost780 | | | | | | | gost780s | | | | | | + | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gost2003 | | + | | + | | | gost2003s | | + | | + | | + | gost2008 | | | + | + | | | gost2008n | | | + | + | | | + gost2008l | | | + | + | + | | gost2008s | | | + | + | | + | gost2008ns | | | + | + | | + | + gost2008ls | | | + | + | + | + | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ugost2003 | + | + | | + | | | ugost2003s | + | + | | + | | + | ugost2008 | + | | + | + | | | ugost2008n | + | | + | + | | | + ugost2008l | + | | + | + | + | | ugost2008s | + | | + | + | | + | ugost2008ns | + | | + | + | | + | + ugost2008ls | + | | + | + | + | + | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Style | utf8 | strict | modern | eprint | long | sort | natbib ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |Gost2008| style is recommended for most applications. It corresponds to the currently effective Standard 7.0.5-2008. Librarians should use the style |gost2003| instead of |gost2008| to compile a library catalog to meet the Standard 7.1-2003. Use of other styles is explained in |gost.pdf|. What's new in version 1.2 (2012.02.22) 1. Code refactoring. All styles are now generated from single source file. 2. Support for GOST-7.1-2003. The field |medium| is added to reflect type of material. For most entry types |medium| defaults to |text|. 3. Support for |natbib| package. 4. Support for |natbib| package. 5. All modern styles are now compiled with the |eprint| option. What's new in version 1.1 (2012.01.21)} 1. Support for GOST 7.0.5-2008 and GOST 7.1-2003 is provided. 2. |@Online| entry is added to format a reference to electronic resource on Internet. 3. |@MastersThesis| entry is added to format a reference to master's thesis. |@DSciThesis| entry is added to format a reference to doctor of sciences thesis. 4. |Urldate|, |eprint|, |eprintclass|, |eprinttype| fields are added.
