I think not.
Apparently Scribus is now production ready and is gaining market share vs
XPress. It runs on nearly any platform including Linux. The people I met
at LibreGraphicsMeeting who were using Scribus in production environment
actually use it everyday on Linux and were very interested in OGA/OGC.
If it is at all possible, precise color calibration on OGA should be
available, otherwise OGA will end up losing a pretty vocal group of
professional users.
