Pre-release of LyX version 2.0.0 (beta 3)
Pre-release of LyX version 2.0.0 (beta 4)
==========================================
We are pleased to announce the third public pre-release of LyX 2.0.0.
We are pleased to announce the fourth public pre-release of LyX 2.0.0.
Except usual bugfixing we addressed long-term slowness issues during this
cycle, in particular we tried to improve performance of the following areas:
* exporting of longer documents
* editing of documents with rich inset structure
* editing with opened outliner.
Except usual bugfixing we fixed random crashes connected with the
new background export and compilation feature.
Since this is most probably the last beta release we also added
convertor for old (1.6) preference files which are automatically
checked on the startup now.
Please report the problems and bugs at our lists or bug tracker and
also note that this release is for testing purposes only. Users are
encouraged to use current 1.6 stable release for any serious work.
Tarballs and binaries can be found at ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/
Note that windows installers might not appear for this release.
LyX 2.0.0 will be culmination of more than two years of hard work
and you can find an overview of the new features here:
