+- LyX needs to be run under Python 2 and will not work properly on systems

 Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.0.x

   Please refer to the beginning of the languages file for an explanation
   of the new syntax.
 
+- There has been a large change in how Flex insets are named. Previously,
+  they tended to have names like "CharStyle:Noun". Now, they just have
+  names like "Flex:Noun" (where "Flex" is a namespace that is optional).
+  When LyX 2.0 reads older files, it silently converts the old-style names
+  to new-style names; this direction works perfectly. It will also silently
+  revert new-style names to old-style names, when exporting to 1.6.x format,
+  but only for the pre-defined LyX insets. This means that user-defined flex
+  insets will not be properly reverted.
+  To solve this problem, you can modify the file $LYXDIR/lyx2lyx/lyx_2_0.py.
+  In that file, you will find the following:
+    flex_insets = {
+      "Alert" : "CharStyle:Alert",
+      "Code" : "CharStyle:Code",
+      "Concepts" : "CharStyle:Concepts",
+      "E-Mail" : "CharStyle:E-Mail",
+      "Emph" : "CharStyle:Emph",
+      "Expression" : "CharStyle:Expression",
+      "Initial" : "CharStyle:Initial",
+      "Institute" : "CharStyle:Institute",
+      "Meaning" : "CharStyle:Meaning",
+      "Noun" : "CharStyle:Noun",
+      "Strong" : "CharStyle:Strong",
+      "Structure" : "CharStyle:Structure",
+      "ArticleMode" : "Custom:ArticleMode",
+      "Endnote" : "Custom:Endnote",
+      "Glosse" : "Custom:Glosse",
+      "PresentationMode" : "Custom:PresentationMode",
+      "Tri-Glosse" : "Custom:Tri-Glosse"
+    }
+  This is a map form new-style names (minux "Flex") to old-style names (and
+  there is a similar for DocBook elements). To get a user-defined CharStyle
+  to revert properly, it simply needs to be added to this list.
