RISmed 2.0 (2012-05-06)

Because of the limitations of calling through hubmed.org, RISmed now downloads

content directly from NCBI. This has required major revisions to the package including the

dropping of the Reference class and export functions.

The name of the package will be retained but its design will focus on getting NCBI content for analysis not for reference management

The current version has the main advantages of no longer having a reference limit to downloaded records. It also can access any valid Entrez database. It still sucks because there is not much processing of content so 2.0 should be considered an alpha version
