Multiple sources should be separated by a semicolon. This is currently not possible due to the hack used to prevent trailing dots after footnotes {\usebibmacro{cite:postnote}}\nopunct}
The \nopunct command should be removed and instead the postnote macro needs to be altered.

would be nice

• Only the initial letter of authors' first names that are present in the bib-file may be displayed in the bibliography
• First names are currently not abbreviated automatically (and need to be abbreviated manually in the bib-file)

According to DHBW's citation regulations there has to be a a prefix like "Appendix 1" for each entry in the list of appendices.
Only the title strings are currently displayed when using \listofappendices .

When there is one author but two sources are referenced issued in differend years the label of the second entry in the list of reference is broken. It shows on the left side --- and pushes the label on top of the other information on the right side.

Footnotes show a wrong label when there are multiple sources of one author. It should show "Surname, F. (2000a), S. 123" but instead shows "Surname, F. (2000)a, S. 123".

Entries with roman page numbers are not referenced correctly.
Links in the table of contents point to the previous page of the entry instead of the entry's page.

seems like enabling the confidential note or a really long title causes an empty first page

Add something like that after the translations block:

%--------------------------------------------------------------------
% Ensuring that labels in Lists of Stuff are
% identical to those in the captions
%--------------------------------------------------------------------
\newlength{\mylen}

caused by

\newcommand{\appsection}[1]{%
    \subsection{#1}\addtoappendixlist{#1}}

in header.tex

with \subsection*{#1} there would be no title prefix like "Appendix 1: "

references in footnotes should display the abbreviated first name of the author and not just the surname

There is no avoidance of widows and orphans implemented.

Some bibliography drivers print the author and year. They should be removed, as these information are already contained in the labels of the list entries.

\usebibmacro{author/translator+others}

Labels are in block alignment. That causes ugly spaces when line breaks are necessary.
The should be justified right or left instead.

DHBW's citation regulations demand the bibliography to be formatted as a table.
At the moment this is accomplished by a workaround with indented list elements in the bibliography environment.
This breaks the layout when long auhor names break into the next line. The line break on the left author-side causes the 2nd line on the right side to be blank.

The month is shown next to the publication year when a bib-entry contains a month field

eg.
month = aug, year = {2003},

results in:
(Aug. 2003)

instead of:

(2003)

Titles should not be in quotes. Has been changed for most BibliographyDrivers, however the thesis driver e.g. still shows titles in quotation marks.

Some other drivers such as incollection need to be fixed as well.

\label{some_label} for \appsection is not working propperly. \ref{some_label} gets me the number of the last \section, \subsection or \subsubsection but not of \appsection.

Appendix/list of appendices should be added before the list of references.

See citation regulations for details on formatting of appendices:

• short intro on how to set up the needed environment
• complete list of package requisites
• optionally instructions for bib-file creation, citing commands, pdf creation

using the footcite command within the caption environment can cause strange results.
this seems to be a common issue and a workaround should be documented
