Hmm. The [WL2003] referencing style is not a great improvement IMO. I advocate placing the full reference into a page footnote. The number of references could be as large as it is needed. Is there a reason to collect all the references in one place other than for counting? Received on Fri Dec 02 2005 - 12:26:48 CST
