+This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.4.1
+All comments are welcome.
+
+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_4_X, which you
+can get with the command
+  svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_4_X lyx-1.4.x
