Zotero Lawsuit Dismissed

Posted by kdawson on from the ending-of-note dept.

peretzpup writes "The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that Thomson Reuters's lawsuit against George Mason University has been dismissed. Last fall the news organization had sued GMU's Center for History and New Media over supposed violations of the EndNote licensing agreement by the Zotero project, hosted at the university. Zotero, a Firefox plug-in designed to help scholars store and organize their online research, has seen millions of downloads. Zotero project co-director Sean Takats's announcement is pretty heartwarming. No comment as yet from Thomson Reuters."

    Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, and the like are not known for their harsh winters yet where did our civilization come from?

    On the other hand, what they are known for these days is their complete collapse of civilization.
