Now that the translation page is up, we don't need as much translation info
in index.php3. Here's a new version of the main page. Alejandro, could you
put it up (if it's ok)?

Welcome to the LyX developers only web-site.

<p>
<img border=0 width=117 height=87 src="lyx_small3.gif" align=right>
This site is meant to be used primarily by the developers of LyX.

For general information about LyX, please
visit the <a href="http://www.lyx.org">LyX homepage</a> instead.
<p>
This site will be expanding as we retrieve and update some of the less important
pages that were lost in a crash. However, the essential resources
are back on line.
<p>

<h2>LyX 1.0 has been released!</h2>
LyX 1.0.0 was released on February 1, 1999.
For more information on its features, or
to download it, please visit the <a href="http://www.lyx.org">LyX homepage</a>.
This release, coming after a long code freeze, allows the developers to focus
on the new development branch, LyX 1.1; it features a kernel rewrite and
toolkit independence, along with a bunch of smaller upgrades.

<p>

<h2>Help wanted!</h2>

LyX is an open source project, and we need your help!
LyX is developed by volunteers from around the world.  We work
in our free time, and do our best, but we need your help to
continuously improve!

<h3>Do you have a few bucks to spare?</h3>

If you want to show your support to the LyX effort, please consider
making a donation
to <a href="mailto:larsbj@lyx.org">Lars Gullik Bjønnes</a> to
help us get a new machine to host these development resources.

<h3>Do you know C++?</h3>
If you are a programmer and can program in C++, please consider 
contributing to the coding effort.  
Get the latest cvs version, have a look at the code, and see if there
is something you'd like to tangle with.  Contact the
<a href="mailto:lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org">LyX Developer's mailing
list</a> and we'll try to set you up.

<h3>Are you a LyX power user?</h3>

If you are a skilled LyX user, you might want to help out with the 
documentation effort.
The LyX documentation is considered to be very good, but the development
of LyX is moving faster than the DocTeam can keep up!  So, if you know how
to use LyX, or want to learn, get the latest docs from cvs
and read the introduction which contains information on how to contribute
to the documentation effort.

<h3>I understand English, but I write ...</h3>

The LyX program and its documentation are developed in English.
However, many LyX developers and users write or speak other languages.
Contributions for LyX internationalization are always welcome.
Check out the <a href=translation.php3>Translation page</a> to see 
the various ways that you can help.

<h3>I have an idea!</h3>

If you have a cool idea for a new feature, or comments in general about
LyX, please share them with us.  The more feedback we get from the users,
the better we know what we should prioritize in the development effort.

<h3>Questions?</h3>

If you have a question regarding the development of LyX, please
write us at the <a href="mailto:lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org">LyX
developer's mailing list</a>.  Thanks for your help.
