A few days ago, I installed a new version of Jens Berger's jurabib
package in CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/jurabib. Jens added this
text for the announcement of this package:

Here is a list of the most important changes:
NEW:
o IMPORTANT: The order of optional arguments has changed!
`natoptargorder' option removed, natbib order of optional
arguments is now NEW DEFAULT! There is a compatibility
option `jurabiborder' for old documents.
o jox.bst is part of jurabib.dtx.
o Indexing code completely rewritten (contributed by Stefan Ulrich).
o Danish language support added (contributed by Mads Munch Hansen).
o Finnish language support added (contributed by Harri Kiiskinen).
o Portuguese language support (contributed by Eva and Miguel Costa).
o new option `silent', replaces \jbsilent.
o new option `dotafter=bibentry' replaces \jbdotafterbibentry.
o new option `dotafter=endnote' replaces \jbdotafterendnote.
o new option `lookforgender', replaces \jblookforgender.
o new option `annotatorlastsep', replaces `colastsep' option.
o new option `annotatorfirstsep', replaces `cofirstsep' option.
o new option `annotatorformat', replaces `coauthorformat' options.
o new option `super' transforms \cite commands to footnotes,
suggested by Frank Mittelbach.
o new option `config=<configfile without extension>', allows to
switch between configfiles, suggested by Frank Mittelbach.
o new command \lookatfortype, allows to determine a list of entry
types for which the lookat feature should be used
(suggested by David Feest).
o \footcitetitleonly introduced, suggested by Frank Mittelbach.
o New commands to tune indexing introduced:
\jbdonotindexeditors (suppress editor-indexing).
\jbdonotindexauthors (suppress author-indexing).
\jbdonotindexorganizations (suppress org-indexing).
\jbindexonlyfirstauthors (to index authors only at first
appearence).
\jbindexolyfirsteditors (to index editors only at first
appearence).
\jbindexolyfirstorganizations (to index organizations only
at first appearence).
Known Problem: Authors with special characters (umlauts etc.)
aren't sorted properly (makeindex-problem).
o loading of config files rewritten. The loading is now as follows:
1. \usepackage option overwrites values given by config
files.
2. option placed in \jurabibsetup (in the preamble)
overwrites values given by \usepackage.
3. last \jurabibsetup overwrites values of preceding
\jurabibsetup.
o Some hooks for multibib.sty compatibility implemented, testfiles
added for multibib compatibility (jbtestmb.tex) and for
bibunits compatibility (jbtestbu.tex), thanks to
Thorsten Hansen for adapting his packages.
REMOVED:
'multiple'-functionality removed! To have the same feature you
have to load footmisc.sty with option 'multiple' now,
suggested by Frank Mittelbach.
BUGFIXES:
o \jbindexbib works correctly again.
o added some alternative babel main language values, initially
suggested by Harri Kiiskinen.
o Hook for memoir.cls bibliography added, suggested by
Robert Schlicht (requires mempatch.sty!).
o small bugfix for loaded hyperref and tabularx packages
(hyperref turns off hyperfootnotes internally),
bug reported by Maarten Wisse.
o bugfix for @manual function, did not recognize organization as
fallback for missing author, reported by Frank Mittelbach.
o new integer 'extra.extra.num', new function 'make.extra.label'
and some modifications on 'forward.pass' (suggested by
Robert Schlicht in d.c.t.t.)
[...]
Many Thanks
Jens Berger

jurabib – Extended BibTeX citation support for the humanities and legal texts
This package enables automated citation with BibTeX for legal
studies and the humanities. In addition, the package provides
commands for specifying editors in a commentary in a convenient
way. Simplified formatting of the citation as well as the
bibliography entry is also provided. It is possible to display
the (short) title of a work only if an authors is cited with
multiple works. Giving a full citation in the text, conforming
to the bibliography entry, is supported. Several options are
provided which might be of special interest for those outside
legal studies—for instance, displaying multiple full
citations. In addition, the format of last names and first names
of authors may be changed easily. Cross references to other
footnotes are possible. Language dependent handling of
bibliography entries is possible by the special language field.
