Helge,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I wrote to the IT folks a few weeks ago
with the suggestion and will try to follow it up in a few weeks time.
While there is no licensing costs they may have to worry about the
installation and support cost/effort. But again, I think that LyX is
far and away better than SWP and is definitely worth their investment...
and will try to convince them of it :)
There is also the cost-cutting angle. Get this free sw up and running,
then the powers that be may evaluate it as a replacement for both swp
and word. All instances is not realistic, but fewer licenses may cost less.
