Perhaps silly questions...

* Should I remove LyX 2.4.4 before installing LyX 2.5.0 RC 1, or can they 
co-exist?
* Should I install Python 3.8 or newer on my Windows PC before installing LyX 
2.5.0? Will LyX find the Python installation, or do I need to include Python in 
the path? [I don't actively use Python, so I'm a little rusty on installing 
Python...]

Subject: LyX 2.5.0 Release Candidate 1

We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for LyX 2.5.0. 
This is 'feature complete': no new features will be added. Most of the 
translation work has also been finished, though there are some new things that 
will be in the final release.

Find it here: http://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.5/

Please note that LyX 2.5 needs Python 3.8 or newer to work.

Please test this version and let us know if you run into any problems by 
reporting them to [email protected], which you may do by replying to this 
message.

For info on what's new in LyX 2.5, see:

We'd especially appreciate testing of these new features!

Riki
