Hello, my name is Colin Lichtwark. I am a postgraduate student at Swinburne 
University in Melbourne Australia. I am trying to use ubuntu as much as 
possible but the issue I have is with libre office note having an effective 
citation manager interface especially with mendeley. I feel this is a huge 
impedance to the popular adoption of ubuntu.Is the work being done in this area 
with your software development?.

Yours Sincerely, Colin Lichtwark

Hi Colin,

I think you are looking at this the wrong way round. Mendeley already
has an Ubuntu plugin to interface LibreOffice. It seems they initially
had some problems with this plug-in, but according to this thread
http://support.mendeley.com/customer/portal/questions/1384344-mendeley-plugin-for-libreoffice-4-1-4-
it now works as advertised. I may be wrong, because I am not a Mendeley
user (my personal preference is Zotero) but from what I read the plug-in
appears to be part of the Mendeley Desktop package, or at least
available from the Mendeley Tools - Install LibreOffice/OpenOffice
Plugin, see: http://www.mendeley.com/features/reference-manager/

Hope this helps.

Regards
Dave
