I can think of some interesting projects that would move Scribus forward and 
save developer time.

- Build a bridge to ImageMagick, so this can be used as "Swiss knife" for 
graphics import (reads 95 formats: 
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php)

- In the alternative, build a bridge to OpenOffice.org for text, spreadsheet, 
presentation, and vector import.

- There has been talk about a stand alone story editor.

- LaTeX support (http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=128)

- Rewrite and enhance the table features

- Footnotes and marginal notes (seems to be postponed and no longer planned 
for 1.4)

- Spreading and choking

Interesting projects for students, I suppose ...

Cheers,

Christoph
