Hi Stefano, Thanks for looking into that. I am glad to know that it wasn't the application and they liked the ideas page. It's still frustrating, though and brings me back to my earlier email. I think it would be worthwhile to conduct some LyX marketing and promotion.
There are a lot of very specialized applications on the approved list, some which are much more narrow in scope than LyX. I think the big difference is the "brand" behind the project. While LyX has a stellar brand, I think it would be good to expose it to a larger market of engineers, writers, and publishers. Just my 0.02, though. Cheers, Rob
