Hello LyX testers,

I uploaded an installer for the fourth beta release of the upcoming LyX version 1.6.0 for Windows.

NOTE: LyX 1.6 is in beta state! That means it is stable enough for a beta test release, but expect
inconsistencies and regressions. This preview release is build for interested LyX users who want
to check out the new features of LyX.

The new features of LyX are listed here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16

! THIS LYX VERSION SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR ANYTHING ELSE THAN TESTING !

-----

The installer for this version can be downloaded from:
https://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117&release_id=14892

(General infos about the installer can be found here:
  http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller )

This LyX version can be installed side by side to an existing LyX 1.5 installation when you unchek
the installer option update the ".lyx" file extension settings. It will be installed as "LyX
1.6.0beta4".

Installer Changelog:
-------------
Version 4.06
- LyX 1.6beta4 (http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg141829.html)
   (list of current regressions: http://tinyurl.com/yu4the )
   (list of current crashes and critical bugs: http://tinyurl.com/653prg)

Important note: Due to a bug in LyX you are first be able to export documents to e.g. PDF after
opening the preferences dialog and clicking there on the save button.

happy testing and best regards
Uwe
