No worries, here. Scribus community has always taken a lax view on being "on
topic".
Feel free to express your feelings as long you don't call anyone names (at
least not other people on this list). 

Moving from Windows to Linux will definitely be applauded by a lot of people
here. OTOH we Scribus devs provide OS/X and Windows versions of Scribus,
too,
so using Linux is not mandatory. My personal opinion is that the best way
to use Windows is from a virtual machine, eg. VirtualBox. Then each time it
annoys you, you can just reset it to the latest snapshot :-).

It's also useful to know that CorelDraw runs under Wine; or that people
have problems using Uniconvertor. That info might help some people, and most
readers will use some bitmap editor and vector graphics program parallel to
Scribus.

So, keep posting if you have something you want to say.
