Please check the ML archives for various pointers on the technical aspects of these projects. The gist of it is that LyX already supports exporting to XHTML, and ePub is a subset of that. So what we need is some love shown to the XHTML export, to make sure it always behaves, and then properly package that output under ePub specs. Please check the archives and feel free to ask additional questions. In addition, check this: http://wiki.lyx.org/Devel/GSoC2013ApplicationTemplate for some guidance on coming up with your application. Regards, Liviu
