Hi,
It has been almost a year since I started improving the CCOOO plugin. 
I am very happy to that it has become a successful project.
I would like to apply as a GSoC student this time also with Creative Commons. 
This time thought of making a plugin for Scribus.
 
Since Scribus is a widely used open source desktop publishing tool, I think it is good to have a plugin like OpenOffice
for that also.
We can have the same features like the OpenOffice plugin, to add license and meta data (specially in PDFs) and 
also to use CC licensed images in the documents created using Scribus.
I have read about the plugin development in Scribus. We can develop plugins for it using C++ and
Scripts using phython. Since we have to deal with some core components in thins case, I think we have to use
use C++ plugin for this.

What do you think about this? Is this important at this time or is there any thing that I can add to this proposal?
