Thank you very much for your contributions to this thread

I would like to give a brief summary of what I have been able to learn

I gave a try to inkscape however it seems that the render of latex formula is
broken at linux at version 0.45. Last stable version I haven't been able to
compile at linux and I can not comment

So far, the more promising try have been ipe. It seems that latex formulae can
be easily inserted. There are some minor issues that I have to get used, but it
could be the tool we are looking for.

PyX seems to much low level for my taste. We were looking something more 
drag'n'drop

Before I recommend my colleague to give a try to jfig I'd like to hear from
people that have used it if jfig can be used the same way that xfig with the
external material inset (taking care of latex formula rendering internally using
some python scripts)

Other possibility would be cygwin however it will depend on the policy of the
system administration where he works.

Once again thank you very much for your valuable contributions.
