+- User layout files must be converted to UTF-8
+
+In previous version, layout styles were allowed to use non-ASCII names
+using the local encodings. LyX-1.5 now assumes that all layout files are
+UTF-8 encoded. This means that non-ASCII style names are still allowed
+but they nust be valid UTF-8 strings. One way of doing the conversion
+is to use iconv. Using bash, the script below should work:\r
+\r
+cd /path/to/layouts\r
+for l in *\r
+do\r
+  cp $l tmp.txt\r
+  iconv -f latin1 -t utf8 tmp.txt -o $l\r
+done
+rm tmp.txt
+
+- Cursor restoration problems with Multiple-View
+
+When using multiple Windows to edit different parts of the
+same document, the cursor position is sometimes not correctly restored
+when you switch from one view to the other.
