Re: [libreoffice-users] Zotero Integration with LO [Proposition / Feature Request?]

2012-08-16 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I think TDF, just like other companies and organisations, could have more than 
1 product.  It might be best if they bring their community and structures with 
them and retain a lot of independence and work-flow but obviously there might 
be some things that TDF could offer or would want such projects to 
incorporate.  I had thought such projects might include database back-ends, 
Gnome Office (if that needs a home), Calligra Office (although they are 
probably well organised already).  

Probably it's all been discussed on the discussion's list here but this is an 
exciting time for TDF and there are a lot of opportunities for planning 
road-maps into the future.  
Regards from
Tom :)

See zotero.org 
You will find a few videos
It is what you might think of as a bibliographic tool. I recommend it to all my 
students (along with FF and LO.) It also provides for sharing of collaborati 
libraries. I would have to suggest that the zotero community might appear to be 
less prone to spatting and more cohesive, and that would be my only heartburn 
in a closer relationship.

 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!

I actually agree with that. It makes sense and will mean more people
will become aware of both projects which is waht I suppose we really
need/want?

It's a research tool that allows you to select quotes and generate
citations from them. You can generate bibliographies and reports and do
all kinds of stuff. It looks like something that would really help me,
and I installed it ages ago, but have never had the time to learn how to
use it. Given my profession, I would think it could be tremendously
helpful, so I have it on my list of things to master.  It probably would
be a good tool to try to integrate into LibO.

where is the software located?,

   how much does it cost?,
   does it automatically use the proper footnote and

  and how complicated is it to operate?, if you've had it, yet

Anne,
As you have shown you're a simple windows-user and apparently not very 
well in taking initiative. There are 2 possibilities:

1   use Google
2   go to the Zotero-site to educate yourself (http://zoteror.org)
