The goal of this project is to create a program, that helps you correcting footnote-entries in scientific publications.
It takes a long time to adapt footnotes to specific publishing-guidelines by hand, using "normal" text-processors. In the end, it would be fine to have a tool, that lets you arrange footnote elements, e. g. authors, visually, without using copy/ paste.
Several text formats like Rich Text, Word or Open Document format should be supported, to fit into a common workflow.
