This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.3.1
All comments are welcome.
You can find a list of bugs pending for 1.3.1 at URL
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&&target_milestone=1.3.1
I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to check it out (or fix
a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let me recall that all
these fixes have been checked in the branch BRANCH_1_3_X, which you
can get with the command
cvs checkout -d lyx-1_3_x -r BRANCH_1_3_X lyx-devel
