[Scribus] Ideas on collaboration [was: How do you guys

[Craig Bradney]

Just an idea, and perhaps its been mentioned already (havent been following 
that closely :)). 

Why not generate a list of required actions to be coded in whatever format, 
ie:
bold
italic
emphasised
paragraph
title
etc
Eg, Linux Magazine uses the formats shown at:
http://www.linux-magazine.com/Writers/Format

And instead of enforcing one system on users, create a few dictionary files, 
and the "Pro Publisher Importer" get text importer can perform lookups based 
on a dictionary supplied. In this way, a publishing company can create their 
own versions for each they require if one of the Scribus ones isnt 
appropriate.

Publisher X can have: <p>blah blah blah</p>
Publisher Y can have: !Pblah blah blah
Publisher Z can have: @L:blah blah blah
