I guess we already did that when it was suggested for the first time 
(http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=99581094419585&w=2). This "Scribus"
looks like a mere page layouter, just as the page says: "similar to 
Pagemaker, Xpress or InDesign". What we are after here is something 
following the Ventura paradigm: an all-around publishing solution for 
page layout _and_ long structured text.

Other than that I'd have no problem to stop this discussion, either.

Regards,

Thomas
