Thanks for the info, this is also a problem in the current 4.0 version. We will see if we can contact either the authorities responsible for this or provide a fix in JabRef.

This is also the reason for the failing fetcher test

A fix similar to the code from the MathSciNet fetcher should work.

Thank you for reporting this issue. We think, that is already fixed in our development version and consequently the change will be included in the next release.

We would like to ask you to use a development build from https://builds.jabref.org/master and report back if it works for you.
