[Scribia-developers] Developers Wanted: Scribia

[Lark <la...@fe...>]

H'loi!

I'm looking for exiles willing to help with the development of Scribia.

Scribia is an open-source Scribus replacement. It is based on Metrowerks
Codewarrior 5.3 and PowerPlant/STL. The log file scanner is based on GNU
Flex. Scribia is available under the terms of the Artistic License, and
development is managed via SourceForge.net.

Development page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/scribia/

To participate in the development, you'll need to grab the Scribia sources
from CVS. To compile them, you need Metrowerks Codewarrior 5.3. You will
also need the following (free) 3rd party packages:

  € Apple Computer's MoreFiles 1.4.9
    http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/Sample_Code/Files/MoreFiles.htm
            
  € Codewarrior GNU Flex Plugin b2
    http://www.ambrosiasw.com/~fprefect/plugins.html

Scribia is in very early phases of its lifecycle. The GUI is practically
nonexistent, and I'd be more than happy if someone with PowerPlant
experience would take over responsibility for that part. The log file
scanner is pretty complete and much faster than Scribus (factor of 10x -
100x). THERE IS NO BINARY AVAILABLE YET.

If you decide to help developing Scribia, please subscribe to
scribia-developers on the web site. That mailing list will be the main
discussion forum for people working on Scribia. Other mailing lists
(scribia-announce, scribia-users) will be created soon.

Please do not hesitate to contact scr...@li...
if you have questions I haven't addressed here.

PS: I have sent this message directly to the representatives of several
clans in the hopes they will make it available on their clans' message
boards/mailing lists. I will not contact you personally again.
