Why create a > separate LyX one when the LaTeX part of CTAN already exists? Because CTAN contains the *LaTeX* packages/classes while for using them in LyX, we need *in addition to them* also LyX modules/layouts. This need for definitions on both, LyX and LaTeX levels is a main reason why creating/editing LyX layouts is such a complex task. (And also the base for much frustation for people with either a just a LyX layout or just a LaTeX class or package.) Günter
