-Public release of LyX version 2.3.0rc2
-========================================
-
-We are proud to announce the second public release candidate of the new LyX 2.3
-series. This pre-release is meant for testing and should not be used for
-serious work. For curious users who would like to test in order to help catch
-bugs before the 2.3.0 release, please back up all of your documents and be
-prepared for the worst to happen. Most users (who desire a stable LyX version)
-should not use this pre-release.
-
-The 2.3 series has a rich set of new features compared to the current stable
-series. An overview of the new features can be found here:
-
- https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX23
-
-You can download LyX 2.3.0rc2 from ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/.
-
-We appreciate your help in testing this pre-release!
-
-If a file from an earlier version of LyX is opened *and saved* with
-any version of 2.3.x, then the original file will automatically be
-backed up. The backup file will be found in the backup directory, if one
-is set under Tools> Preferences> Paths, or else in the same folder as
-the original file, if no backup directory is set. The filename of the
-backup file will be:
- ORIGNAME-lyxformat-NUM.lyx~
-where NUM is the LyX format number of the original file. In the case of
-2.2.x file, this will be 508, but in the case of older files it will be
-different.
-
-The file lib/RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
-to the current stable releases (LyX 2.2.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 a lot of new features but
-also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.0rc2, either
-email the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org),
-or open a bug report at https://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome.
-Please specify if the behavior you are reporting is different from behavior
-in a previous LyX version.
-
-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 https://wiki.lyx.org/. You can also send email to the LyX users'
-list (lyx-users at lists.lyx.org).
+Public release of LyX version 2.3.6
+===================================
+
+We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.3.6. This is the sixth
+maintenance release in the 2.3.x series. We encourage all users to
+upgrade to this version.
+
+You can download LyX 2.3.6 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/.
+
+LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based
+on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance. It is
+released under a Free and Open Source Software license.
+
+LyX 2.3.6 is the sixth maintenance release in the 2.3.x series. It is the
+result of on-going efforts to make our stable version more reliable and
+more stable. Most of the changes are fairly minor, fixes of smallish bugs,
+but a couple crashes have been fixed, as well.
+
+One oft-requested feature (going back 13 years) is the ability to create
+new child documents from within the 'include file' dialog. This is now
+possible. Another equally old bug that has been fixed is that pasting
+table content outside a table no longer pastes tab characters.
+
+If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.6, please open a bug report at
+http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you're not sure whether it
+really is a bug, you can e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel
+<at> lists.lyx.org) and ask.
+
+If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the documentation
+that comes with LyX (under the Help or Apple menu) and the LyX wiki, which
+is at http://wiki.lyx.org/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the
+LyX users' list (lyx-users <at> lists.lyx.org), where you will find an
+active community of people who are ready to help.
+
+We hope you enjoy using LyX 2.3.6.
The LyX team.
