There are those possibilities, but the lyx people will probably give permission for linking with libforms since they clearly intend for that to be done. The biggest problem with KDE was outside code that was ported and that the KDE people did not want to make the needed changes. Has anyone yet contacted the lyx people? > IMO we should try to keep lyx. Or do we have an alternative to offer? With > kde we could say try gnome which IMO is much better anyway. This is not, I repeat -NOT- about whether or not we can replace KDE with Gnome or we can replace lyx with anything else. We should try to convince the lyx people to make the changes we need to allow us to keep lyx, just as we tried with KDE. I agreed that KDE needed to be removed because of the license problems, NOT because it was non-free code or anything so petty.
