[Scribus] Scientific publishing

[Christoph Schäfer]

Hi all,

following the list for more than two years now, I have recognised that a lot 
of people use/tried to use Scribus for scientific publishing purposes -- with 
more or less success. Although LaTeX can be considered a standard in this 
area of publishing, there are certainly many goals that can be easier 
achieved with a layout software.

In case enough people are interested, I would add a discussion article to the 
wiki or create a metabug on the bugtracker. I believe the requirements of 
scientific publishing differ enough from general purposes that such a special 
would be justified (besides, it could become one area for the suggested 
expert teams). Things like file formats, bibliographies, scripting 
capabilities etc. could be discussed there.

Please tell me what you think about it.

Cheers,

Christoph
