Can you all help me with answers to Peter's questions. They would be
good to add to our website as well.

Hi Jon,

Sorry for the delay in answering, but I have been swamped. 

I have written a short blob for scribus.net and will make a call on the
scribus mailing list - there are at least 200 on that one and we get
around 400-500 visits a day.

It would help to have some quotes:

1) What inspired this ?


2) What is the preferred form of contribution ?


3) What are the most important long term goals of the project ?


4) Open ended - add quotes you want printed>

Cheers,

Peter
