Okay, so we add another endnote with that as a disclaimer. "Crafted
by a LyX developer who is an inactive lawyer [he'd be a lawyer if he
were willing to pay the $700/year in fees to keep his licenses
active]...."
Acceptable?

Of course, if I had my druthers, I'd add to the license that "LyX could
not be distributed by members of the FSF [or Debian, if we wanted to
honk the GPL-fanatics there off] for version x.x.x, and only version
x.x.x, because we feel that they're muttonheads". But then again, you
know I like to be spiteful. <evil gryn>
