I had a look at the cvs commit statistics over the last three and a half months: Alstrup 15 Baum 39 Bjønnes 59 Braunstein 42 Jamatos 38 Lasgouttes 60 Leeming 85 Pönitz 14 Spitzmüller 23 Spray 28 Vermeer 5 This is hardly rapid progress. It shows that LyX is a slowly evolving beast. Indeed, if only one person is committing many changes quickly, then I expect the code to become more buggy not less. Wouldn't you? I'm not saying that what you propose is wrong or even that my suggestions are better. I'm saying that we should be cautious, that's all. Two people are saying _WIN32 is the wrong macro, so it's unreasonable of you to reject their opinions out of hand. Especially when some of these arguments are backed up with evidence contrary to your own assertions. -- Angus
