Word/OpenOffice plugin development
Zotero developers,
Thanks for the updated roadmap. It it very exciting that we will have soon the ability to share collections.
There was very little on the plugin development.
At least in my hands the openoffice plugin is barely usable, and has some serious bugs. For me and i guess for many other users this is a barrier to adopting zotero.
What priority do you give to the plugin development?

That's such a vague and sweeping statement that it borders on FUD.
How "barely usable" and what "serious bugs"? For what version of the plug-in? Have you reported these issues?
I was referring to the latest version of the plugin (2.0a2).
Here is a list of reported problems:
1. Turning on tracking changes in OpenOffice creates multiple problems wit inserting/deleting citations. It is reported here:

2. The citation window can not be resized or moved in Windows, hiding the text that is being edited. In linux it pops under the documents (Opensuse 11.1). Here are links to discussions:

3. Fields are not terminated. When editing next to the field the text being entered and in the field. This also has been discussed several times:

4. Formating changes are reverted to the style defaults when inserting references. There is the ticket:
