As someone mentioned last time this was brought up, the DTP-tool Scribus should be added to the mix, since it is the InDesign equalent of a free DTP enviorment and it would be great if they got involved in this. Inkscape has already some relations with this project. I have started to screenshot the three apps to point out small stuff that would make them work better together, but I am unsure where to post them. Would the inkscape wiki do, or should it be put on more "neutral" ground :) , like freedesktop.org?

There is one major factor that would make merging Scribus with GIMP or Inkscape very difficult. GIMP and Inkscape are both based on Gtk+, and deeply, too. (the 'g' in Gtk is for GIMP) Scribus is a Qt app.
When I say 'deeply' I mean that not only are the visible GUI pieces based on Gtk, but also a great portion of the internal structure.
