[scribus] Schedule for next major release.

[Jeffrey Silverman]

If nothing else, the .sla file format used by 1.3.5 will still likely be
readable by whatever is the next stable release. So from that POV -- being
able to open the file in the next Scribus version -- you should be okay.

I have used 1.3.5. and 1.3.3.X and I far prefer to use 1.3.5. BUT it
definitely has problems, so save your work OFTEN. But it *is* usable.

Let us hear a story on how it turns out. Even if it is a boring story. Throw
in some references to Angelina Jolie or something to spice it up.

later...
