Sure, no problem. Two practical issues though: - In what form would you like to see the input formats? Would it be enough to output a string like "LyX 1.4,LyX 1.5,LyX 1.6", or something fancier? - Some LyX developers have strongly opposed special-casing eLyXer, and have insisted on general solutions for all kinds of (IMHO egregious) situations. Do you think that lyx2lyx could be modified to take into account eLyXer's input formats without hurting their sensibilities? Alex.
