 Today it's Good Friday, and Monday is Eastermonday. So, I think I will 
 officially announce the release on Tuesday morning. This also gives us the 
 weekend to prepare some PR.
 
 Maybe we can announce the news on the website a bit more prominent than just 
 a small news heading. Also, we might consider preparing a announcement 
 leaflet or whatever.


Now I've made the packages for 2.1.0 for Mac OS X 10.5 too.
These are usable for users on legacy systems.
Some users may ask for it.

This sounds very reasonably to me. I'll plan to release 2.0.8 shortly 
thereafter.

Easy enough to do, since those pages are editable online. But if we are 
going to do that, we should decide on some text for the announcement an 
dtry to get the Japanese, Spanish, French, German, and (I think) 
Hungarian translators to give us something to put on those versions of 
the page. A quick message to lyx-docs might suffice.

There was one day delay last time with clear statement that the only news
is 1.6.10 can read 2.0 and only users who need to continue in this serie
should install this.

Pavel

BTW please put 2.1/2.0.8 tarballs to proper ftp locations at least one day 
or more before annoucing.

I see: 2.0.0 first, then 1.6.10 a bit after. That sounds reasonable.

Yes, I always do that. It's in the instructions on the wiki.

Yes, web ping pong of download links within few days does not make any sense to
