DBLP version 0.4.5 is more or less a maintenance release. It fixes several connection problems and as an improvement removes the cross-reference from the BibTeX entry. The book title in the main entry is now replaced by the title of the cross-reference. This should be more convenient with regards to the limited space in a research paper.
To update your gem execute
sudo gem install dblp

Punch Card is a blog about software development. The title is a homage to the punch card or also known as punched card which was one of the first and most straightforward ways to persist digital information. Straightforward should also be the way of developing software, but in reality it is quite often a bumpy road. Our blog gives little hints, tutorials or small how-to instructions. Often, there is a bunch of people out there who face the same problem, so let's write the insights down !
The blog is run by Christian Tinnefeld and Martin Grund, two PhD candidates in the field of main-memory database technology at the Hasso Plattner Institute at the University of Potsdam, Germany. Enjoy !

I’d like to suggest a feature.
I’m working on a sigmod paper and I have space problems / trouble fitting all the content. One trick to save space is to shorten the bib entries such that conference names are abbreviated, all authors beyond the first author are replaced with “et al.”, etc.
So I guess a mode for compact references would be an awesome addition to your tool.
