Awesome! Thank you Scribus Team, this is so much appreciated for our language. Our combining diacritic tone-markers on top of our ten vowels (two distinct groups of five) behave much better than on all the previous versions. And I love the small improvements, like the separate text-properties window. A few weeks ago, I had boldly decided to start using 1.5.3svn for our first-ever full size book. I had had a hunch, that even 1.5.3svn was stable enough and now you gave confirmation that this new version - with the all new text-engine - is no longer lab-stuff but has become a real tool. I had worked with three different 1.5.3svn and never had any crashes nor irregular behaviour. I am convinced that many more minority languages can now start using Scribus and that more users will mean (more questions on this list and) more support for the entire Scribus idea. I will share this news with my friends. Well done!!! Martin
