 <h2>What’s New in Scribus 1.4.3?</h2>
-<p>This is a cursory overview over the changes in Scribus compared to to the latest stable version 1.3.3.14.</p>

 <h3>General</h3>
 <ol>
-<li>On initial launch, 1.4.x will offer to inherit the configuration data from any existing prior version, but it will store them separately, so you can run 1.3.3.x in parallel with 1.4.x </li>
-<li>You <b>can</b> install both versions in parallel and run them at the same time. The only caveat is to install them using different installation directories, e.g 1.3.3.x in /usr/local and 1.4.x in /opt or $home/bin on Linux/UNIX. If you’re building Scribus from source, you can use the <code>-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=</code> argument to configure where Scribus should be installed. On other platforms you can determine the location during the installation process.</li>

 <h4>Qt4 Port</h4>
-<p>One of the major endeavours on the way from 1.3.3.x to 1.4.x was the porting to the Qt4 toolkit. Among others, it enabled a vastly better performance under Mac OS X, as well as the creation of native DMGs for OS X. Scribus 1.4.x DMGs will run on OS X 10.5 or later.</p>
