Re: [tdf-discuss] Libre Office & Zotero Integration [Proposition of a New Partner?]

Thank you for the feedback. I understand your reasons about your logic.
Although I think my opinion is quite clear and I will state reasons why
either on another post or discussion.  But my main effort at the moment is
to publish that wiki tomorrow about referencing systems in LO and to see if
it can broaden discussion, which I believe it will!! And hopefully at the
end of all discussions it should reveal a positive outcome about
referencing in LO.
