FWIW, when I main-authored "Samba Unleashed", we simply divvied out the chapters to the authors. It worked very well, and would fit right in with LyX's master documents. There were a few instances when a pair of authors wrote a chapter. In that case, the publisher left the mechanics of the operation up to those two authors. HTH SteveT
