[New: openFATE 308261] Include Bibus, a bibliography tool that interacts with Openoffice via UNO
Feature added by: Sven Burmeister (rabauke) Feature #308261, revision 1 Title: Include Bibus, a bibliography tool that interacts with Openoffice via UNO Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Sven Burmeister (rabauke) Description: OpenOffice lacks a decent bibliography support which is mandatory for scientific writing. Bibus is a python tool available for all platforms, i.e. Windows users can use the same tool when switching to Linux. It can interact with Openoffice via the UNO api, i.e. it does not only export its data, but inserts it into the OO document. It can even be used with a central database, i.e. for companies that want to share their bibliogrphic data.

JS + #3: Alberto Passalacqua (greengeeko) (2010-04-26 18:30:34) + I actually do not completely agree with this proposal, since there is + another tool that I think can deal with bibliographies better, and it + is Zotero http://www.zotero.org/ + Zotero is a plugin for firefox + a plugin for OpenOffice.org / + Microsoft Office. It allows citations to be directly saved with a + simple click on a wide variety of online databases once their web-page + is opened in Firefox. It's easy to store, organize, collect, and search + information. Additionally it is possible to store the file containing + the documents and taking notes about it. It is also possible to sync + data with other machines. + The plugin for OpenOffice allows a direct citation of the source with + pre-defined or customized citation styles. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308261
