LII Citer pre-release review request

Submitted by DA Shetland on Tue, 09/30/2008 - 2:50pm.

All e-citation-seekers:

The LII has been consolidating and refining the regex it uses for
generating links in its auto-processed documents, and we thought we
should share a spin-off that may be of use to legal researchers.

A very preliminary sample of what we would like to have eventually may
be found at the following URL:
http://hula.law.cornell.edu/citer/

We are looking for initial impressions and major problems encountered,
to get us to the point of something releasable as a general use tool.
You should anticipate the page being updated often. "Citer" is a work in
progress among friends. It is currently hosted on our development
server, so do not expect production consistency or reliability.

The initial scope is deliberately very narrow while we are in proof of
concept mode. We hope to quickly add some of the scope and quality
mentioned on the introductory page, and are already looking at a scope
inspired by analysis of the Cardiff database of abbreviations.

Please, for this first round, feel free to respond to me personally at
this address.
Please do not distribute to folks who might confuse this with a final
product (grin).

And enjoy!
