Slides 8/9/10 and 18 are particularly relevant.  We need to convert the
(very good) IUCr HTML/DublinCore metadata into BibJSON. Should be about a
10 - line program. I'll probably hack something in Java but Pythonistas or
anyone else are welcome to help.

The goal is something like: "I read a paper, I capture the bibliography and
annotate it and save it for the world". I comment on it.Bit like what
Connotea (dead) did or Mendeley (proprietary) does.

The madness was only the timescale. If we can create something in the next
2-3 days that would be wonderful as I can present on Monday (AU time)
