Comment #4 on issue 1162 by percival.music.ca: website bibliography
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1162

.itexi is "included texinfo file". This is just a convention for our build process; it's not an official filename extension.

For the accents... what happens if you have a non-ascii character in a .bib file? Does bibtex completely barf, or does it just copy the character into the output .texi file? If the latter, then that's great -- texinfo handles utf-8, so there's no problem. If not, let's just use a simple script to remove all \? and \{?} marks from the .bib file before processing the modified file.

I'd rather not use biber; we're past the deadline for adding dependencies to lilypond, and in any case, we want to keep the dependencies for building the website pretty low. (in fact, we might even want to avoid bibtex as well -- I'll ask the question on -devel)
