Hi all,

The Scribus Team is pleased to announce the release of Scribus 1.1.7. The 1.1.7 release is the most stable, feature complete version to date. This release is mostly a bug fix release intended to allow more extensive testing of the new features recently added for the upcoming release of a stable 1.2 Scribus. Although, marked a developer's release, the Scribus team urges all users and distros to use this latest release.

The Scribus Team is also pleased to be chosen by Trolltech as one of their "Cool Applications". We on the Scribus Team are honored to be recognized as such and appreciate the recognition.

Also, Franz has provided bzip2 tarballs which shrink the download size by about 30%.

Expect to see Fedora/RH and Suse RPMs soon, as well as debs provided by our Debian maintainer extraordinare: Alex Moskalenko

Enjoy!
