I think a lot of the mail in this thread contain a lot of truth (from all). But please everybody 
truth is relative to the viewer and not universal. If Christoph has knowledge of multiple problems 
and test files to show it, then lets find a way to make them available, instead of solving the 
general problem (which is far more difficult as described).

Thanks Christoph for suggesting a compromise. 

I think it is a good idea ! and please have each problem added as a BZ issue, with some link to the 
Scribus bug tracker (e.g. id), and a not like “if you want to work on this bug, please assign it to 
yourself, and ping Fridrích / David / Christoph  to get access to the test document”.

I hope with that solution everybody is happy, and we can all benefit LO being even better than it 
is.

I just have to comment on one thing. The use of “YOUR” is not correct, we (whoever that is) do not 
own the program, it is OUR bugs, where our means everybody using LO.

Lets all have some nice days.
