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!



Regards

Anthony Easthope
