A really nice city (I loved it :)!!! Have been there in March and will
probably return there in November. I have been in the Engineering
department and have visited the Computer room but I couldn't find any
Linux Machine, so maybe the mathematics institute is better equipped #:O)

I'm no mathemagician ;) so I cannot answer to any of that questions.

Sure ever new developer is welcome!!! We lately had a bit problems with
our devel-pc, but now I source-code-and-pc-maintainer in Norway (thanks
to Lars here for all his work!) installed 2 new PC for the lyx-project,
(thanks to the people who contributed something so that this PC's could
be installed!) and now cvs should be running fine again!
Just drop a mail if you have particular problems!

We are working on GUI independence so that lyx can be ported easily to
other toolkits (Qt/KDE, Gtk/GNOME, ...), but this will take a little
while.
