A much requested feature, MDI (mulitple document interface) is in Scribus. This give users the ability to have multiple Scribus Documents open, as well as copy paste/move objects between documents.

A new Hyphenator Plug-in has been added, greatly ehancing the text layout within Scribus. Hyphenator Documentation describes how this works.
