Citation database broken

Is the citation database broken I found a forum post saying something like the database is not working and that you guys are looking into another solution?

Hi @FlaminSeraphim,

Can you provide more details, e.g. what citation database you’re using and what forum post you found? Also, which of our applications are you using, and what version?

ojs lastest 2.* version. Whenever we try and use the citation extractor and checker service it just says its working on the servers side.

Hi @FlaminSeraphim,

We’re not actively maintaining the Citation Markup Assistant, and we’re aware that one or two of the services it interacts with have changed aspects of their API which are now causing the CMA to have trouble interacting with them. Rather than investing too much time in the CMA, which won’t be included in OJS 3.x, I’d suggest having a look at at the Open Typesetting Stack, which is supplanting it (and provides a much more generally useful service).
