Bibliography Modernization

[dwsideriusNIST]

Let's create a wish-list for modernizing the bibliography style for LiveCoMS

1. Add 'Accessed on _' note to electronic content, including software repositories
2. Evaluate biber/biblatex as a replacement for BibTeX. First step should be to identify a biblatex style that gets us close to the current bibliography format. [@dwsideriusNIST: have to learn how to write a style for biber.]
3. Allow URLs to break at hyphenation. This can be handled with BibTex by adding the following line to an article preamble

\usepackage{url}
\def\UrlBreaks{\do\/\do-}

Solution may be different for biber/biblatex

Does the fix in #88 address point 3 above?

[davidlmobley]

I think so, @mrshirts , or at least partly -- but your fix is only for the GItHub URL, right? I think this also deals with ANY url. Or does your fix cover all URLs?

If you've tested it out and it works, maybe just let us know and we'll merge?

[dwsideriusNIST]

@davidlmobley I also tested the fix from #88 for the bibliography and confirmed that it works. I will submit the PR connected to #88 and then revise this issue
