In general, make the ANNOUNCE sound a little less celebratory and a little more precautionary. The celebratory version will be used for the final release.

Public release of LyX version 2.3.0beta1
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
We are proud to announce the first public beta of the new LyX 2.3 series.
|
|
This pre-release is meant for testing and should not be used for serious work.
|
|
For curious users who would like to test in order to help catch bugs before
|
|
the 2.3.0 release, please back up all of your documents and be prepared for
|
|
the worst to happen. Most users (who desire a stable LyX version) should not
|
|
use this pre-release.
|
|
|
|
The 2.3 series has a rich set of new features compared to the current stable
|
|
series. An overview of the new features can be found here:
|
|
|
|
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX23
|
|
|
|
You can download LyX 2.3.0beta1 from ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/.
|
|
|
|
We appreciate your help in testing this pre-release!
|
|
|
|
The file lib/RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
|
|
to the current stable releases (LyX 2.2.x). We strongly recommend that
|
|
packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions read this file.
|
|
|
|
As with any major release, this one comes with a lot of new features but
|
|
also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.0beta1, either
|
|
email the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org),
|
|
or open a bug report at http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome.
|
|
Please specify if the behavior you are reporting is different from behavior
|
|
in a previous LyX version.
|
|
|
|
If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the
|
|
documentation that comes with LyX (under Help) and the LyX wiki, which you
|
|
will find at http://wiki.lyx.org/. You can also send email to the LyX users'
|
|
list (lyx-users at lists.lyx.org).
