import from local RIS file
A minor problem that I noted. I saved some RIS files to local workstation from the journal Nature, a major publisher of all kinds of science.
However, when tried to import, got an error that no translator for that kind of file was found. This file is copied below. It might be nonstandard(?), but this, at least, seems to be a frequent variant... it has some information about provider and content before the other content. If remove this down to the TY field, it imports (see below for format).
Not sure how much you want to forgive variants of a format, but it seems a very common variant and is likely to annoy many times of social, physical, and biological scientists that either the capture of file from web link (earlier post) or from the saved file will work!
Thanks for the great tool, looks like it shaping up well.

Now the good news: we already have a brand new translator for Nature that will allow you to grab references directly. Stay tuned for Zotero 1.0 beta 3, to be released in the very, very near future.
