Before I distribute the fixed module on the Wiki, should I expect such
a change to break any backwards compatibility for existing documents
using the old module?
lyx2lyx takes care about _some_ Flex: prefix changes that have been done
within the layouts shippped with LyX. It might cover your case as well, but
you can only find out by testing.
Thanks. I suspect "Custom:" prefix renamed to "Flex:" is common and
handled already by LyX, as here all seems to work OK with existing
documents.
Since your module is not included in the distribution, you can do not much,
except documenting the change.
Should I be using the:
Format 2
convention? I suspect it won't make a difference since the module
isn't in the distribution, but I'm wondering about "good practice"...
You should use whatever format tag is correct for your particular
module. This is what Lyx
uses to determine whether it needs to do a layout2layout conversion.
