Someone has added lyx to wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LyX
The history section was educational:
History
* Matthias Ettrich started developing the shareware programm Lyrix in
1995(?).
* Soon after this it was announced on USENET where it received great
attention during the subsequent years.
* Shortly after the initial release Lyrix was renamed to Lyx due to a
name-clash with some commercial software. In this course it was also
GPL'd, which opened the project to the open-source community.
* Version 1.0.0 of the software was released in 1999.
Is the history accurate?
