When writing bib files, bibtex prescribes a captitalized ordinal for editions, such as edition=Fourth. But babelbib and biblatex insist on numbers, such as edition=4. This means that whenever we switch from one setup to another one, we have to rewrite our bib files. Similar rewriting has to happen for langid in biblatex+biber vs. language in babelbib+bibtex.



E.g., the following file is made for processing with pdflatex and bibtex:



documentclassarticle
usepackage[USenglish,ngerman]babel
usepackagebabelbib
usepackagefilecontents
beginfilecontentsjobname.bib
@bookFischer-LineareAlgebra,
author=Gerd Fischer,
title=Lineare Algebra,
edition=12,
isbn=3-528-87217-9,
publisher=Vieweg,
language=ngerman

endfilecontents
bibliographystylebababbrv
begindocument
citeFischer-LineareAlgebra
bibliographyjobname
enddocument


With bibtex but without babelbib, we'd have to rewrite 12 to Twelth. With biber+biblatex, we'd have to keep 12 but change language to langid.



So, how to automatize this process? Each manual rewriting is error prone and takes time...
