The IETF Administration LLC is soliciting bids for the 'BibXML Service' RFP. Overview: The IETF provides bibliographic citations in XML using the BibXML format, for documents produced by the IETF and several other standards bodies. These citations are organised in datasets, with some pre-supplied, some generated and then stored persistently, and others generated on demand and cached for a short period. The generation uses a mix of different mechanisms These citations are automatically retrieved by tools like xml2rfc and kramdown-rfc2629, simplifying the authoring experience. The citations are available individually and as full datasets, through the web service at xml2rfc.tools.ietf.org (see ‘Citation Libraries’) as one of a number of services accessible through that page. For an example, see the XML citation for RFC 7991. The IETF seeks a contractor to reimplement the various generation mechanisms in a common way, and to provide a new service for people to access these XML citations. This reimplementation will need to anticipate the later addition of other output formats in addition to BibXML.
