<pre wrap="">Hi all, am editor / designer of a monthly newspaper [1] which recently began
producing with Scribus on Ubuntu 12.04. Please guide me to find a way to edit
text from different users within the layout, I have understood that this is
possible with a CMS, but I have no idea how to start. My technical skills are
minimal but like intellectual challenges. Thank you in advance, regards from
Rosario, Argentina.

<font face="Liberation Serif">It would be good to know what sort of
organizational style you use or plan to use. Is a single person in
charge of layout? Is a periodical like this divided into sections
so that more than one or many people work on the layout? What
kinds of editing are you doing -- fixing spelling, grammar, or
maybe just adjusting to fit the available space?<br>
<br>
I don't know that CMS is going to help you much. If you want to
edit the text while in Scribus, there are two preferred ways to do
it: some prefer using Edit Contents mode, where you edit while
seeing how the text looks on the main canvas. Others might use
Story Editor, where you see the text but not in the font that will
show on the main canvas until you update or exit the Story Editor.<br>
<br>
You can of course subdivide a periodical like this into smaller
parts, then bring together later in Scribus or join their PDFs
(the latter takes a bit more technical skill and requires an
external program such as pdftk).<br>
<br>
If you can tell us how many people work on this, and what their
roles are, then you should get some kinds of specific feedback
from those who are doing this right now. It looks like you have
settled on a pretty stable style for the layout, which by itself
should help.<br>
