Inkscape and Gimp are already running on Linux, Windows and Mac, Scribus
is on Linux and Mac with a Windows port under way, probably Krita will
take the same path along with KOffice at some point, so i think is
possible to find some common ground.
Also, think about the possibility to use Create as a place to
collaborate with other developers of audio (and maybe video) FOSS
applications.
