The OpenOffice era project OOoBib [1] morphed into CSL, but beyond some initial
metadata support in ODF that has not crossed back over to ODF.  Meanwhile CSL
continues to mature and is deeply supported by Zotero & Mendeley.

Would think that rather than reinventing the wheel (editors, schema in our
internal Bibliography DB)--we should concentrate on providing the missing
support for external citation & reference.  

Two tracts to handling--1) a solid framework for 'external' extensions (like
Zotero, Mendeley, even EndNotes) to hang off.

Or, 2) we implement our own native ability to parse CSL and render citation
"objects" (metadata & styling) accordingly.

In either case refactoring the minimal support in of ODF for metadata --(ODF
1.2, 19.757 & 19.758 [2])
