Hello LyX testers,

I uploaded an installer for the fifth release candidate of the upcoming LyX 
version 1.6.0 for
Windows. This release is for interested LyX users who want to check out the new 
features of LyX.

NOTE: LyX 1.6rc5 is still not a stable release! So you might stumble over 
regressions. When you
found a bug, please report it to
htp://bugzilla.lyx.org

The new features of LyX are listed here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16

! THIS LYX VERSION SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR ANYTHING ELSE THAN TESTING !

The installer for this version can be downloaded from:

(General infos about the installer can be found here:

This LyX version can be installed side by side to an existing LyX 1.5 
installation when you uncheck
the installer option update the ".lyx" file extension settings. It will be installed 
as "LyX
1.6.0rc5".
