LyX 2.0.0 released
Public release of LyX version 2.0.0 =================================== We are proud to announce the public release of LyX 2.0.0. With this release, LyX celebrates 15 years of existence, and we start a new family of 2.x releases to acknowledge LyX's passing from a child to an adult. We hope you will celebrate this anniversary with us. LyX 2.0.0 is the culmination of two and half years of hard work. This release begins a new series of 2.0.x which will incrementally improve its stability as the time passes. An overview of the new features can be found here: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX20 You can download LyX 2.0.0 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/ . We hope you will enjoy the result! The file RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared to the current stable releases (LyX 1.6.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 lot of new features but also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.0.0, 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 . 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). The LyX team. http://www.lyx.org (Log in to post comments)

There are few projects that work as reliably for me as LyX does. A convinced user since 1997, I have quite a bit to celebrate with this release. Congratulations to the developers, and thanks again for your hard work!

It is perhaps good to remind readers that this is the project that led Matthias Ettrich to start KDE, because it is not just a great tool in itself.

Lyx is great. I am a scientist and use it for all my papers and as a professor I use it for all assignments. This grand old project proves the worth of open source software. It is very mature, nearly bug free and laden with useful features. Thanks to all the developers.

I'm another scientist who uses LyX for everything. It's the second application I install on any computer I use (after Emacs) and it's impossible to overstate how many hours of effort it's saved me over the years that I've been using it to write reports, academic papers and documentation.
