I am not a developer, but I know Envelopes and labels probably will
not show up in AbiWord 1.0. AbiWord has transistioned from a corporate
effort to an almost completely volunteer effort, (although Sourcegear
still provides the tools the devolpers need, etc.), so I think things
are
developnig a little slower now than they used to, but I could be wrong,
that's just my impression. The current devolopers are doing a terrific
job
and I hope AbiWord continues to win supporters!
