Hi Folks,

I am forwarding this as it might be in interest. Please reply directly
to Ilan.

FYI, I have been informally discussing with Inkscape folks going there
to man the booth.  Any Scribus folks interested in helping in a booth
etc. are welcome to contact me directly.

Thanks,

Peter
Scribus Team
