Re: [tdf-discuss] Libre Office & Zotero Integration [Proposition of a New Partner?]

What I envisioned was the Zotero package becoming a "native" part of
Libre Office much like the say the writer application is. For example
how that would work would be in the LO installer package there would be
an auto extracting Zotero installation file, of course it could be a
option which a user could deselect should they not want to have Zotero
Functionality, I apologize if this explanation is bad I'm half awake due
to assignments
