I hope you can understand that this list is populated by a collection of people, some developers, but mostly just a number of people interested in Scribus and various aspects of DTP. You have already experienced that some have strong opinions, but I guess you do too, so it seems you should be in familiar company. The important thing is not to assume that feedback you necessarily represents some official position that the Scribus Team has. Greg
