[scribus] Scribus and ePub?

[Murray Strome]

>From my experience, Calibre does a perfectly adequate job of converting PDF files to EPub format. I don't think that it is a good idea for Scribus developers to spend time and effort in developing a direct EPub export for Scribus -- the effort of the developers could be better spent in expanding and improving the core functionality of Scribus.

I would like to see the addition of the LibreOffice spell-checking dictionaries. Yes, I could (and sometimes do) edit everything in LibreOffice first, then copy or import it into Scribus. However, often I will receive a relatively short E-Mail and rather than copy that to a LibreOffice document. I will directly copy it into the Story Editor of Scribus. But then, I run the risk of missing spelling errors (especially since I want to use Canadian English, and contributors often use US or British English, which has different spellings for many words).

I think Scribus is a wonderful tool, and I appreciate the efforts of all of those who have helped to create and maintain it!!!
