Dear Sue and all, I am also very interested in this issue because I will soon need to upgrade my 7-year-old Mac mini and that will undoubtedly involved moving up to Big Sur 11.x. I’ve been using a 2008 version of InDesign CS3 which will not work on Big Sur, and was also referred to scribus to do the layout for a nonprofit newsletter we publish. Are the developers aiming to get it approved by Apple?
