\begin{abstract}
\noindent The \bpl\ package provides a \emph{biblatex bibliography style file}
({*}.bbx) for publication lists, i.\,e.\ a bibliography containing one's own
-publications. The style file draws on \bibltx's \emph{authoryear} style, but
-provides some extra features needed for publication lists, such as the omission
-of the own name from author or editor data. The package requires at least version

If you want to change the appearance, just redefine this macro via

+The indendation of the bibliographic entries (lines > 1) can be adjusted by setting the length

+\subsection{Using a different base style}\label{sec:basestyle}
+
+By default, \bpl\ loads \bibltx's \emph{authoryear} style, and it has been written
+to work with that style. However, it is possible to try a diffent base style, if
+\emph{author\-year} does not fit your needs.
+
+In order to do so, enter the following \emph{before} loading \bibltx:
+\begin{quote}
+ \begin{lstlisting}[language={[LaTeX]TeX},
+ moretexcs={[2]{publistbasestyle}}]
+ \newcommand*\publistbasestyle{<stylename>}
+ \end{lstlisting}\end{quote}
+where <stylename> is the name of the biblatex bibliography style (\emph{bbx}) you want to use, without the \emph{bbx} entension (e.\,g., \lstinline|\newcommand*\publistbasestyle{mla}|).
+
+Note, though, that there is (and can be) no guarantee that \bpl\ will work with all styles, although it has been successfully tested with several. Be prepared to bump into \LaTeX\ errors and carefully check the output for correctness if you try a different base style.

\begin{description}
+\item [{V.~1.3 (2016-08-05):}]~
+
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item It is now possible to change the base style that is used by \bpl. See sec.~\ref{sec:basestyle}.
+ \item Proper sorting of pubstates.
+ \item Add possibility to increase the indentation of items (by means of the length \jmacro{extralabelnumberwidth}). See sec.~\ref{sec:auxmacros}.
+ \item Use \jfoption{pagetracker=true} instead of \jfoption{pagetracker=spread}
+ by default (avoids warning, no change in functionality).
+\end{itemize}
+
\item [{V.~1.2 (2016-05-12):}]~
\begin{itemize}
- \item Accomodate to the backwards-incompatible changes of \bibltx~3.4
+ \item Accomodate to the backwards-incompatible changes of \bibltx~3.4\\
(\jfoption{prefixnumber} $\Rightarrow$ \jfoption{labelprefix},
\jfcsmacro{ifempty} $\Rightarrow$ \jfcsmacro{ifdefvoid}).
This version of \bibltx\ is now required.
