I agree. We've theoretically had a feature freeze for months now, and if we
don't have a real feature freeze, 1.0 will never be released. There's nothing
wrong with delaying these things til 1.0.1. After all, 1.0.1pre1 could come
out the day after 1.0.0. We just want to get something *out* there.
Luckily, it seems noone has declared a reLyX feature freeze. OTOH, all those
lazy reLyX developers don't seem to be doing anything.

It's great that Martin (whom we all know by now is a famous linux writer)
has volunteered to do PR. Don't forget that Allan Rae had volunteered to do
so, too, and I know he had at least some plans. I'm sure that Allan will
be happy to co-direct PR with Martin (at least, I get the impression neither
of you *really* wants to do it) but you probably ought to coordinate your
efforts.
OTOH, Allan was away. Is he back? Do we know when he's returning?

I agree 100%. The move to lyx.org was important, but confusing. I think we've
removed references to via from the README, etc. It's very important before 1.0
comes out to trim down the number of mailing lists, and to UPDATE THE LYX WEB
SITES with this (and other) information!
Lars: please do something about the web sites when you get back. Either give
more people access or give people specific things to do & check in their
inputs. We can't expect all of the various files, docs, and web site to be
perfectly accurate and up to date all of the time, but if there's one time
when they can be, it should be the 1.0 release.
