This is for the benefit +of users who want to stick with LyX 1.6.x for the time being, but still want +to cooperate with users of the new version. Note that LyX 1.6.10 still +writes the 1.6 format, so it cannot produce (but only interpret) LyX 2.0's +new features. + + +What's new in version 1.6.9? +----------------------------- + +We have fixed yet another number of crashes that have been reported to us +and ironed out many small glitches. Also, some features and additions from +the forthcoming 2.x series, such as support for CVS revision control and a +new Swedish localization, have been backported to LyX 1.6.9. + + +What's new in version 1.6.8? +----------------------------- + +LyX 1.6.8 is the result of our ongoing efforts to make our stable version +even more reliable and stable. We have fixed crashes that have been +reported to us, ironed out many small glitches, further polished the user +interface, updated the documentation and added some new layouts. + + +What's new in version 1.6.7? +----------------------------- + +From the list of fixes and improvements, we'd like to highlight +particularly that this release irons out all known stability problems with +Qt 4.6. LyX 1.6.7 is our first release that is supposed to run smoothly +with Qt 4.6, so we urge all distributors who use that version to upgrade +LyX as well. + + +What's new in version 1.6.6.1? +------------------------------ + +The sole purpose of this release is to fix one glitch that was introduced +by LyX 1.6.6: The spellchecker missed further misspellings after applying +a correction. This was due to the fix to different bug that had to be +reverted. In any other respect, this release is identical to Lyx 1.6.6. + + +What's new in version 1.6.6? +----------------------------- + +The release features a long list of fixes and improvements. Yet a number +of crashes, reported by our users or our automatic stability testing +program, were fixed. Moreover, LyX was improved in many details. It also +introduces new features, such as support for the enchant spell checking +backend and for aspell language varieties (such as old and new German +spelling in parallel). + What's new in version 1.6.5? -----------------------------
