Re: [BUG] [new exporter] \cite and \ref in odt export

[Jambunathan K <kjambunathan@gmail.com>]

This has been pending for quite a while and is now fixed with following
commit/org-version.

,----
| Org-mode version 7.9.1 (release_7.9.1-212-gdd44a62)
`----

LaTeX fragments like \cite and \ref which cannot be converted to images
or mathml files will be transferred as such in to ODT export.

As for getting bibtex/citation support with ODT export, I have some
ideas.  It requires some help from org-element/org-export framework.  We
can initiate some discussion with Nicolas Goaziou and check whether his
availability for changes around this area.

Do let me know if something is broken with new exporter.
