I think the language that pops up when you start 1.5.6svn is unnecessarily 
alarming: "UNSTABLE. For testing purposes only!"

At this stage of Scribus development, let alone this stage of the development 
of Scribus 1.5.6 (which we're very close to releasing as the "new stable" 
version), I think it would be better that the message says "DEVELOPMENTAL 
VERSION", and just leave it at that. After all, we have bugs that sometimes pop 
up in the stable version, temporarily making it unusable.

If anyone has questions, it's best to come to the mail list to find out if 
there are important unresolved issues with the latest developmental version. At 
this point, we could easily say that the stable 1.4.9 version has issues in 
that it is missing the new functionality that 1.5.6 offers.
