With this week’s release candidate 3, development on Firefox 2.0 is nearly complete. At this rate, it looks like the code should be finalized by the end of the month.

For those who were unable to download a copy of Firefox 2.0 yesterday because Mozilla was preparing a new version, or who have been worried about trying Zotero because it requires Firefox 2.0, the good news is that Mozilla posted release candidate 2 of their new browser last night. Firefox 2.0 RC2 is probably very close to the final version of the software. Just click on the link to Firefox 2.0 on our home page to get a copy of it, then get started with Zotero by clicking on our download button!

On October 5, 2006, the public beta of Zotero 1.0 went live, along with our new site to help foster the Zotero community. Please have a look around, especially at the documentation. And of course, feel free to download Zotero and try it out!

We currently have two openings to work on the project, one as a full-time senior programmer and another as a full-time technology evangelist. Please see the official job postings at the Center for History and New Media.
