On Sat, 5 Nov 2005, Harald Harders submitted an update to the

babelbib

package.

...

From the README:

This package enables to generate multilingual bibliographies in cooperation with babel. Two approaches are possible: Each citation may be written in another language, or the whole bibliography can be typeset in a language chosen by the user. The current version supports Afrikaans, Danish, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish. In addition, the package supports commands to change the typography of the bibliographies. Many of the standard and extended bibliography styles are available.

ChangeLog:

2005/11/05 1.17 Harald Harders (h.harders@tu-bs.de) - Change the language in alpha-numerical bib items. - Handle numerical edition numbers.

2005/10/31 1.16 Harald Harders (h.harders@tu-bs.de) - Allow to alter space between two abbreviated forenames.

The change of the language in alpha-numerical bib items (babalpha) will enable the use of non-latin alphabets in bibliographies (greek, cyrillic) when they will be available.

Numerical edition numbers are only handled by German 3. Auflage and English 3rd edition right now. Please give me advice for other languages how to translate edition = 3 to an ordinal number.

Thanks for the upload.
