Please, do not sacrifice hours of sleep. No one here wants you to do this. We want LyX development to be fun for you and if it is not, then we have to find a way to make it fun for you again. It seems that LyX development is so stressful for you that it really affects your life in a negative way. We do not want this and it's not good for anyone. > Although I don't know much about CMake and compilers I was able to overcome > all corner cases. I reported the CMake bugs I found.

Great, thanks for doing that. > And you thank this to me by opening a thread that beta is delayed because of > me -- one day after I reported I am ready. This was not my intention. I just meant that the Windows installer was the only thing left before beta. That is all I wanted to say. Nothing more. Perhaps this is a language issue. I think I see what you mean that "waiting" could mean that I am sitting around impatiently wondering where the Windows installer is. There is another usage of the word that simply means it's the only thing left. In the end, there were a couple of issues that we hope to fix before beta is released so my subject line was not even accurate. > Then it is even proposed to state in the release announcement that LyX has > no developer to build on Windows and to create an installer. That hurts! I thought this is what you wanted. I thought you wanted help with development of a Windows installer or for someone to replace you so that LyX development would not be so stressful. > Sorry for the rant, but now I feel better. Yes I always think it is best to get everything out. Scott
