We have sets of formatting macros for the `bib' reference formatting
program available that follow the American Statistical Association
style sheet and the Royal Statistical Society style sheet. They are
reasonably close to the actual styles required and allow both the
"regression (Draper and Smith, 1981)" or "regression as discussed in
Draper and Smith (1981)" styles of citations.
To go with these, we have fairly extensive databases of references
from major statistical journals (around 1000 references at last
count). Both the macros and the reference databases are available if
you send me mail (I'll probably ask for a tape if you want the
databases since they are large). We are particularly interested in
swapping databases if you have any available. We currently have
people adding articles from JASA, Technometrics, etc. as they come
out but there is no sense in this being done at many places. I
checked with James Gentle of Current Index a while back on whether
we could get their tapes to convert them to `bib' or `refer' format
but there doesn't seem to be much progress there. Anyone on the
editorial board of Current Index who reads this should please prod
the board to move on that.
