OpenOffice is in the concept stages of designing a new cross-platform
graphics layer ('canvas') and widget toolkit for OpenOffice. Opinions,
expertise, contributions, guidance, and collaboration are welcome.At least some pre-press capabilities are desired. Ideally this canvas will be authored by more than one open source group. Given that OO has not yet paid much attention to pre-press and publication issues, opinions and inputs from Scribus folks could be very timely. Review the GSL project mailing list archives for details: http://gsl.openoffice.org/servlets/SummarizeList?listName=dev http://gsl.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList Current draft API: http://gsl.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=757001&listName=dev For OpenOffice people, here is Scribus. http://scribus.planetmirror.com/about.html Scribus mailing list http://nashi.altmuehlnet.de/pipermail/scribus/ Mark P.S. To the Scribus people, I would also like to introduce Graphite, which is not part of OpenOffice. http://graphite.sil.org http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=GraphiteFAQ http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=CmplxRndExamples
