This afternoon I finished my first book on linguistics. Except for proofreading, it is ready for press. It will be printed by Linguistics Publishing, Inc. (which I own) to be ready for fall university bookstore orders.
The writing and a lot of the layout was done in OpenOffice.org 3.0.x. Final layout was done in Scribus 1.3.5svn, with assistance from Inkscape. The operating system was Ubuntu Intrepid and Jaunty, x86_64. Not one penny of cash money was paid for any of the software used in the project. Rather, payment was made by participating in e-lists, wikis, bug reporting, and other resources to assist others in using the software. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
