That's smart. LyghtLyX (got the word-pun?) should know that with that document, he is working on a project, for which he relies on the config supplied by a file and related to another machine - config problems are entirely THAT machine's problem. He doesn't care. If he can't give a visualization of a image or external material etc. he simply put this message in a in-text-box "I can't show you this image". He should be self-conscious of his different nature (that's the reason I used HE and not IT...). I read many opinions, and, although we need more, I made my mind that this LyX version should taken in serious consideration by main developers, and we need to know how much work should this require. As a non-programmer I have no idea, but I guess it's less complicated than work on some rtf converters (which, btw, I strongly encourage, of course), the most complicated thing could be re-design the way LyX approach a document: now it should approach a PROJECT, and, even if I have NO experience nor any knoledge with project-management-software, I guess could be a interesting advance with respect to LaTeX or other scientific software. Anyway, hope that with last suggestion I contributed to move back the discussion to original problem: collaboration.
