Good work, Peter: my ideas on the subject are clearer now. Inmediate actions we can take in respect to these scenarios are of two different kinds: 1. Effort in "advertising" LyX. Once, I saw some posts (and I left one) about if we could insert a small "standard" line such as "This book has been created with LyX 1.x (http://...)" but it seem no one created a official one. A sort of non-intrusive logo label as well may be useful for some. 2. Developing poweful conversion tools. And I'm not just refering to "simple" LyX->rtf->LyX conversion, but also to alternative ways to let our Word-addicted colleagues to edit the text of our documents without affecting their structure and special features. 3. (optional, and not so inmediate) A light-weight full-view (and idiot-proof as well) LyX version, (I have the name: LyteX or LyghtX!) which is able to edit text (and structure) of conventional LyX docs, without the possibility of editing ERT or items explicitly banned by the original author, no need to DVIize or PDFize them (WYSIAYNTK: what you see is all you need to know), but with the full version control system activated. This software should be completely LaTeX independent and, if possible, to have an alternate output system for printing a simple representation of the content. Citation dialogs and any other stuff which do not need LaTeX should work. It doesn't seem to me something so difficoult to develop, and it could help in 80% of cases in some of Peter's scenarios.
