bibliographic database

Bibus is a bibliographic database which has been developed with OpenOffice.org in mind. It can directly insert citations and format the bibliographic index in an open OpenOffice.org Writer document. The main features are 

 * hierarchical organization of the references with user-defined keys
 * designed for multiuser-environments (share databases between users)
 * a search engine supporting live queries
 * on-line PubMed access
 * import of PubMed (Medline), EndNote/Refer, RIS and BibTeX records.

Bibus will use an SQLite-database by default for storage (via the SQLite3 module available in Python 2.5). But it also supports MySQL-databases. If you want to use a MySQL-database, make sure, that you have the python-mysqldb package installed.
