Open Source at UWA?

Nov 01, 2008 14:38

Interesting... A student has recently discovered the University's Open Source Software Policy & Strategy. I found this policy myself recently and started asking why it wasn't being applied more...

The product the student talks about, Zotero, actually looks quite a good alternative to it's proprietary counterpart (EndNote). I imagine managing references from within the browser would be more natural to most academics' online/computer research work-flows. It's also integrated with both Microsoft Word and Open Office, it's open-source rival.

Open source is catching up on the desktop...
