 Juergen has created a nice wiki page

     LyX for X

I see an obvious misunderstanding here. To me, "LyX for X" suggests a wiki page about "LyX for the X window system", as opposed to LyX used with other windowing systems (such as microsoft windows).

This is also (exactly) why I thought the name was confusing...

If this is "LyX for scientific use", why not just call it that? Or perhaps "LyX for science"? The X don't say what it is about - or gives the wrong impression. Well, perhaps it works for the intended audience, but can confuse others.

Ok, so some suggestions are as follows:

http://wiki.lyx.org/..
(1)     LyX/LyXForX                     LyX for X
(2)     LyX/LyXForScience               LyX for science
(3)     LyX/LyXForScientificUse         LyX for scientific use
(4)     LyX/LyXForTheSciences           LyX for the sciences
(5)     LyX/LyXForScientificFields      LyX for scientific fields
