[Scribus] Scribus on Windows XP

Why stop at Scribus?  OpenOffice, Inkscape, and others have become the standard in Open Source programs for the Windows World.  Unfortunately, Gimp hasn't, but I am hopeful.  I try to contribute the bugs I find, give input on the way the program handles, and other things.  

You thought process on this topic is way off.  It is like saying, "Why would Microsoft put out a version of Office for the Macs?"  Or, "Why does Adobe create their products on multiple platforms?"  How is it making their products any better, and profits don't count.  

I love using Open Source Software on my Windows platform, because I am not allowed to use Linux at work.  Although I am asked to write the newsletter, policies and procedures, instructions, forms, etc... I like to be able to use a product I believe in.

  I also would like for somebody to show me how a Windows port has helped make Scribus a better program.
