Thomson Reuters has decided to sue Zotero, the open source reference management software. I do not know very much about the merits of the case, but I wonder what would happen if Thompson Reuters were to put money into improving their clunky EndNote program instead of paying lawyers to sue a taxpayer-supported university?
Zotero is sponsored by George Mason University and is available at www.zotero.org.
This story has been covered by Ars Technica and the Chronicle of Higher Education.
