Hello,
Appended as usual is a list of what has been fixed since 1.1.6fix1.
My plan is to release 1.1.6fix2 soon (tomorrow?). Lars, will you be
able today or tomorrow to prepare a tar file if I flag the version?
I'll do the updloads, patch and announcement. Kayvan, will you be able
to provide a rpm?
Please tell me what are the open bugs you consider important for
1.1.6fix2. Also tell me if I forgot some of the changes.
Some known problems are:
- many many tabular bugs. Juergen managed to fix a bunch of them for
the main branch, but it appears that most of these fixes cannot be
safely retrofitted here. Michael Schmidt has written a very
comprehensive list of bugs in 1.1.6fix1.

Also, memory use of large tabulars is still too high
- bug with num keypad in some cases

- bug with some bindings like C-S-T

As usual, I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to
check it out (or fix a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let
me recall that all these fixes have been checked in the branch
BRANCH_1_1_6, which you can get with the command
cvs checkout -d lyx-1_1_6 -r BRANCH_1_1_6 lyx-devel
