ctan-bibdata – Bibliography data for all CTAN packages
All CTAN packages are saved as bibdata with the entry type @manual , which can easily be changed by any editor via the replace function. For the old BibTeX program you have to define your bibliography style file, eg ctan.bst. For Biber resp. BibLaTeX there exists an own ctan.bbx file which uses the data fields:
title, subtitle, author, date, version, license, url, pkgurl, note.
ctan.bbx is based on authortitle which can be changed easily in the file.
The file ctan.bib will be updated on a daily basis.
