Announcement text:
You can hyperling DOI numbers to dx.doi.org. Some publishers have elected to use some nasty characters in their doi numbering scheme (<, >, ; have all been spotted). This will either upset (La)TeX, or your pdf reader. This style file contains a single user-level command \doi{}, which takes a doi number, and creates a hyperlink from it.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/doi . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=doi (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).

doi – Create correct hyperlinks for DOI numbers
You can hyperlink DOI numbers to doi.org. However, some publishers have elected to use nasty characters in their DOI numbering scheme (‘<’, ‘>’, ‘_’ and ‘;’ have all been spotted). This will either upset (La)TeX, or your PDF reader. This package contains a single user-level command \doi{}, which takes a DOI number, and creates a correct hyperlink to the target of the DOI.
