==========================================

We are pleased to announce the first public pre-release of LyX 2.0.0.
Development moved to the beta phase which basically means we will no
more include new features and focus on polishing the current ones.

We are thus grateful for any feedback you sent us regarding the bugs you
encounter while testing the beta release. Except trying new features
this is also good time to check that your favorite old files works with
the new release as expected.
