Hi Guys



I have a proposition for you all and am not sure if you would class it
as a feature request or a partnership suggestion.

My idea is as follows: The Document Foundation partners up with Roy
Rosenzwieg Center for History and New Media and work together on making
The Zotero project an integral part of the LibreOffice frame work.



I have the feeling that I might be treading on thin ground here but I
will outline my reasons as to why this could work below



 * Libreoffice is perfect for use within university's / schools as it
can be easily distributed thanks to the GNU license the same goes
for Zotero
 * The use of Zotero could replace the inbuilt Bibliography &
referencing tool as the current one is quite bewildering to use for
many people
 * Zotero has a nice GUI and can work in with Firefox via an extension
which is also open source so at the same time we are not just
supporting one open-source initiative but three!
 * Zotero is open to suggestions and it appears to other projects as
well
 * Increased awareness of The Document Foundation program via Zotero
related media attention (Vice Versa for LO and Zotero)
 * it would bring a fresh feel to the whole project and could even
mean a new approach and reinvigorate the project



Let me Know what you think and feel free to shoot me down if you so
wish!


With this very idea wie could Hit 2 birds with One stone! IMHO Great!


I know Zotero as a brand and I know it has loyal followers, but  could
you enlighten us  about what such a collaboration would entail?

Thanks,

Charles.
