There is no compelling reason that I would not use Zotero, except now it only offers a handful of output styles and no way to (easily) customize styles. Therefore, it is not much of a time saver at this point. Maybe I need to spend more time learning Zotero. It looks very promising though.
I'm convinced that there will be an open source way to do this in the future that works as well as EndNote. Journal formatting styles are not a moving target. It seems like developers of Zotero or Openoffice will get there eventually. The EndNote ODT support seems like a good stopgap. My first choice would be an open source way of doing bibliographies, but I need to have it do the formatting styles I need to save time. -Matt --- Bruce D'Arcus <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 11/2/07, Matthew Yates <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > ... > > > As I said, I think this is great.
