Public release of LyX version 1.6.9
===================================
Public release of LyX version 1.6.10
====================================
We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.6.9. This is the 10th
maintenance release in the 1.6.x series.
We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.6.10. This is the 11th
and final maintenance release in the 1.6.x series.
LyX 1.6.9 is the result of our ongoing efforts to make our stable version
even more reliable and stable. We have fixed yet another number of crashes
that have been reported to us and ironed out many small glitches. Also,
some features and additions from the forthcoming 2.x series, such as
support for CVS revision control and a new Swedish localization, have been
backported to LyX 1.6.9.
LyX 1.6.10 concludes the successful 1.6 series, which has been our stable
series for the past two and a half years. The most notable new feature of
this version is that it is able to read and import documents of our new
stable series, LyX 2.0.x. This is for the benefit of users who want to
stick with LyX 1.6.x for the time being, but still want to cooperate with
users of the new version. Note that LyX 1.6.10 still writes the 1.6 format,
so it cannot produce (but only interpret) LyX 2.0's new features.
A detailed list of changes is appended below, remaining known problems
are listed in the file RELEASE-NOTES.
Read on below what has been changed and fixed in this version apart from that.
Remaining known problems are listed in the file RELEASE-NOTES.
While our next major release, LyX 2.0, comes closer and already can be
tried out by the curious and brave, LyX 1.6.9 is the release for everyone
who is relying on a rock solid and polished application. We thus encourage
all users to upgrade to this version.
Anyone who intends to stick with the 1.6 series is strongly encouraged to
upgrade to this version.
