Syncronization with lyx.org and the wiki is another problem that has
to be solved unless the mirrors are more "read-only".

We do not need a hot syncronization. rsync every 10 minutes or so to a machine on "standby" and making this one accessible as lyx2.org (or whatever) if and only if lyx.org failes would be completely sufficient.

I finally managed to decipher that sentence after a little while ;-)

Anyway, I agree. We just need a server somewhere. Web pages can be checked out from Subversion. The wiki (pages) needs a bit of fiddling as some addresses are hardcoded to wiki.lyx.org. Perhaps by letting a script parse the HTML just before it's shown, replacing all references to *.lyx.org with *.lyx2.org.

While waiting for the server, I should probably try and setup the backup server on the same machine but under a different virtual name to see that bit works.
