Hi Ludo,

I have never had occasion to use the skribilo bibliography system, and I
haven't actually tested this patch, but it looks neat! I only have
cosmetic and nitpicky changes to suggest.

This file only has deletions. But maybe, update copyright header in this
file as well? It would be nice if we had automated tests for unupdated
copyright headers.

We should avoid single letter names like `l'. :-)

And `n'.

We should switch to the unicode copyright symbol ©, at least in new
files.

The comma is slightly confusing. I'd go with "bibliography-template:
simple" or "simple bibliography-template".

Likewise.

Likewise.

Thanks! :-)
