Well done, and thanks for the report. Scribus is one of the programs I
want to add to my armamentarium. It looks to be a great open source
version of PageMaker/Quark Express that is undergoing very active
development. I look forward to giving it a whirl (and I wonder how well
it will be supported on the Mac OS X side -- that would be a big market
for Scribus, I suspect).

Best wishes,
Clint
