perhaps unsurprisingly i am all for it i don't really see a difference between xforms before it was open and qt-win, yet there is an exception for xforms in the license
then a practical reason that concerns myself is that i moved to paris, and at the institute where i am based everything is windows and there is no getting around it :-( yet all my work is in lyx, and i would like to continue writing with lyx, i also like to take my files from the office and work on them at home on my linux machine. also, most of my collegues are using windows. i'd love to be able to exchange my lyx files when working on a joint project edwin
