On Sun, 20 Nov 2011 Dominik Waßenhoven submitted an update to the
biblatex-dw
package.
Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex
License type: lppl
Announcement text: Yes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.4
This version of biblatex-dw was tested with biblatex 1.7 and
requires at least version 1.6 of biblatex.
- BUGFIX: With @review entries cited by fullcite or
footfullcite the reviewed work was not printed in full.
This is now fixed.
- BUGFIX: With shorthandinbib=true and terselos=false,
the shorthand was printed twice in the list of
shorthands. This is now fixed.
- The smartcite commands introduced by biblatex 1.2 are
now supported.
- The extcite and extcites commands are now also supported
by footnote-dw.
- New command extcitesdelim: delimiter between author names
when using extcites. The default is:
addspaceibstring{and}space
- New option seriesformat which can take the values
standard and parens. If set to parens, the series
of a book etc. will be printed in parentheses, otherwise
without (as is the biblatex standard behaviour). The
default value for this option is parens (as was the
behaviour in earlier biblatex-dw versions).
- New option editorstringfont which can take the values
normal and namefont. With normal, the normal font
is used, with namefont, the setting for the option
namefont is also used for the editor string (and
translator string etc.). The default value for this
option is normal.
- New option editionstring: If set to true, the
bibliography string edition will be added to the
edition field, even if it is not an INT. Thus,
you can type, e.g.,
edition = {2., aktualisierte}
in your bib file and you will get 2., aktualisierte
Aufl. (or, with option abbreviate=false: 2.,
aktualisierte Auflage). editionstring=false will give
biblatex’s default behaviour. The default for this option
is false.
- New entry option oldbookauthor which is equivalent to
oldauthor but for the bookauthor (this is useful for
@inbook entries representing, e.g., an introduction to an
edition of a work by an author that should not be typeset
in the usual font for last names). This option can be set
on a per entry basis and can be disabled with the global
option oldauthor=false.
- Improved options namefont, firstnamefont, idemfont
and ibidemfont which are now aware of the setting of
the biblatex option punctfont.
- Small bugfix for the xref functionality.

biblatex-fiwi is a collection of styles for the biblatex package. It was
designed for citations in German Humanities, especially film studies, and offers
some features that are not provided by the standard biblatex styles.
biblatex-fiwi depends on biblatex (version 1.7 at least) and cannot be used
without it! Since the style in its current incarnation is highly optimized for
documents written in German, the main documentation is only available in German.
If there is enough interest, I may at a later point add an English manual.
