Create an installer that you want but support it! I'll remove my code
ASAP from SVN, sorry that my doing provoke this debate.
Hi Bo
To me, the official installer is whatever the users find at www.lyx.org
and ftp.lyx.org. But... how is this related to SVN? Why can't Uwe keep his
bundled installer (or perhaps LyX distribution) in SVN even if it isn't
the *official* installer?
What is the problem with keeping it in trunk? Is it the name of the
sub-directory? If changing the name isn't enough, couldn't it just be kept
in a separate tree? (The lyx source is in the tree 'lyx-devel', we also
have e.g. the tree 'www-user').
Personally I don't see any conflict in "unofficialness" and being in the
SVN trunk - I think we have precedents :-)
cheers
