Hi!

First things first: Lyx version 2.0 alpha 5, OS: mac os x 10.6.4, installed by 
using the precompiled .dmg from the lyx.org homepage.

My situtation is as follows: I am trying to write an article together with 
someone who is used to word-style gui tools, hence my LyX adventure began. (I 
write plain LaTeX myself, just because that is what I am used to.) I am trying 
to convert my revtex4-1 project to LyX, but LyX doesn't find the layout file. I 
downloaded the file
http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~rmanoj/revtex4-1.layout
and placed it into the folder
~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.0.0alpha5/layouts
Have you reconfigured LyX afterward?

In my LyX 2.0, I don't have that menu option. It is called LyX>  Reconfigure 
instead. This made it recognize the layout file.

However, when the document is converted, all the comments that were originally 
in the latex code are visible in the LyX document. Is this a bug or a feature?

If you mean: The comments appear in LyX itself, as opposed to in the output, then this is a feature of sorts, I guess. The comments are imported, but as what LyX calls "ERT", meaning: raw LaTeX. They really ought to be imported as LyX comment insets, but that's a long-standing request, unless it's been fixed recently.
