Zotero 8, which we announced today, is a huge release, representing more than a year of development. It brings together a large number of new features, improvements, and internal changes that have been in progress for quite some time.
Going forward, we’ll be changing how we manage Zotero releases, with the goal of getting stable features out to all users more quickly.
Instead of waiting months for a large update, we plan to release new versions of Zotero on a regular, rapid schedule, roughly every 6–10 weeks. These releases (Zotero 9, Zotero 10, and so on) will include new features and improvements that are ready for general use.
