Abdel don't get this complaining about the development process too serious. We will see if 1.5 is so bad how all those pessimists claim. By the way, I could understand that someone must leave the team short before a big release because lack of time, but only because he couldn't accept how things evolve, this is really bad style. But it seems to be hip to criticize the current development process, the only way to become a serious lyx-developer. Peter
