so I take it there is a lot of interest in the new tutorial. i'll
start working on a rough outline this weekend. one more question...<br>
-- what license are the old freedomYug pictures and media used for
the original tutorial? could i use those in the new one? or do i
need to just start from scratch?<br>

<div>I think the new version of basic tutorial or a new one is
really needed. The lack of some up-to-date tutorial is one of
reason why Scribus doesn't expand as quick as it could.<br>
<br>
What should the new tutorial content?<br>
<ul>
<li>Step by step HOW-TOs of features.</li>
<li>Rules for typical documents - flyers, presentations,
magazines, books... would be useful because quite a lot
Scribus users are beginners in DTP.</li>
<li>Complete tutorial of creating template (master pages,
scrapbook elements, styles...).<br>
</li>
<li>New 1.4 features (render frames, word tracking, etc.).<br>
</li>
</ul>
I am afraid I am not able to help with writing but I will
translate the new tutorial to the Czech language or find
someone who will do it. Personally I think there will find
more people who will localize the new tutorial into their
native languages. The reason why they didn't do it so far is
that the branch 1.3.3 is very old and localizing such tutorial
is (in some sense) waste of time.<br>
<br>
<b>Note to the Scribus 1.4.0 tutorials</b>:<br>
In Czech language and then in English, I will write two
documents in PDF - tutorials, but really basic. <br>
<ul>
<li>2page (A4, landscape), basic description of UI,
features, shortcuts (something like <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.4/Reference/QuickStart"
target="_blank">this</a>)<br>
</li>
<li>24page (A4, portrait), description of features (short
HOW-TOs). It will be based on <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.scribus.cz/stahnout/dokumentace/manual_Scribus.pdf"
target="_blank">this Scribus manual</a>.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The Czech version of the first one will be available 1st
February. I will than send English version with source
files.</p>
<p>The second one I will create as soon as possible, perhaps
at the middle of February (Czech version). English will be
created after that.<br>
