Hi Heiko,

I'm not sure if I can handle this. It's probably easy to create an extension 
that just copies 376 colour palettes into a subdirectory, but IMNSHO it would 
make sense to create something more versatile, e.g., an OCSC palette manager 
that enables users to select the installation or de-installation of (in the 
alternative: activation or de-activation) of OCSC colour palettes.

Simply put, having additional 376 palettes available, most of which are special 
purpose ones, doesn't make much sense. Scribus uses a dedicated download 
service to let users choose what they need.

I certainly don't have the time to code this, but if anyone wants to get their 
hands dirty with trying, I'll be supportive.

Best,
Christoph
