Nice, this is a big step forward! I'd like to change just one thing: Move the 3rdparty directory to the top. This results in a better separation from the LyX sources and makes it less easy to include headers directly without setting proper include paths. Then we could also move boost into the directory, and if it is needed in the future, we could also add other third party resources that are not sources, e.g. images. Georg
