Testing it now... Works fine on my Arch system. Arch's current nodejs is
4.2. As I understand it, io.js has been merged back into node 4.+

The citeproc-node server itself is not very complex. It's just a node
wrapper around citeproc-js. The big limitation, it seems to me, is that
it only accepts a json format as input. Also it seems to use html markup
in all its output formats.

Though published by the Zotero programmers, citeproc-node, I believe, is
distinct from the citeproc-js implementation in Zotero, which is a XUL
application.
