OK. I did two book and although I gave credit to LyX in them, still, I
feel a bit indebted to contribute to the project a bit...

I did C++ long (20yrs) ago in the era of Zortech compiler, and now I
feel it's a bit too low-level to me (especially after being exposed to
Haskell).

I remember it was a big problem many years ago when LyX adopted GUI
abstraction 'cause it was too hard to dive into the codebase for
everyone except L&L. :-)

Nice that it has changed.

Although I need PHP for web stuff, I tinkered a bit with Python as
well (will use it to adopt Roundup tracker for our needs), so I'll
take a look.

Good.

Thanks for all the updated info about LyX's status...
