Hello all,
For those who haven't seen it, the new LyX website is now at:
http://www.lyx.org/test/index.php/Main/HomePage
We're still doing some design work, but the basics are in place. What do
you all think?

Looks very nice. I have a few minor suggestions, mostly pertaining to
the home page:
1. I would include the word "license" in the link to the license.
Currently only "Free Software / Open Source" is highlighted, so it's
slightly unclear whether this is a link to the actual license or just to
a definition of FOSS.
2. I suggest a direct link to the visual tour, or at least the
screenshots, in the left margin. When I'm shopping for software, that's
usually one of the first things I seek out, and I'll sometimes not
bother poking around a site if I can't see screenshots early on.
3. Should we provide output samples (DVI, PDF) somewhere (under About
LyX or Visual Tour)? Non-LaTeX-users might not know what they're getting.
4. I suggest that "several languages" at the bottom of the home page
link to either the somewhat maligned translation page or just a list of
currently supported languages.
Overall, I think it's a great job.
