-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

This is a bugfix of the last release of LyX, version 0.8a.  0.8.2 seems
so far to be _much_ more stable than 0.8a.

LyX is a wordprocessor frontent to LaTeX, which gives both the
ease-of-use of a wordprocessor, and the flexibility and power of LaTeX.

LyX-0.8.2 is available as source-only at 

ftp://ftp.via.ecp.via.fr/pub/lyx (always has latest source)

and with an a.out linux binary (libXpm statically linked since some
libXpm libraries are incompatibile with Xforms) at my Web-site

http://www.lehigh.edu/~dlj0/LyriX.html

it is an http link, though, not an ftp link, so you should make sure
yuor browser is set to download to a file, rather than try to view, the
file.
