OK, great, so I guess that settles it :-) Dec @ LILUG will be "Open
Source Desktop Publishing" and I'll cover Scribus, the GIMP and
Inkscape. There are many tools and techniques which are similar in the
GIMP and Inkscape, so that will save some time in the talk.
I'll create some printed matter ahead of time in Scribus which contains
a bunch of layout and graphics (chosen to demonstrate specific
techniques), then show how I created them.
Cheers,
Matt S
