Well, given the fact that about 50% of all lyx-devel emails deal with MS
Windows problems, scons is a BIG step forward. But you are right, the
end user doesn't really care. (I cannot resist to point out that we care
too much about non-end users nowadays :-) )
Where is the improved performance and stability?
To be achieved :-)
IMHO change tracking in 1.4 is problematic. That's why I try to rewrite
it for 1.5. IIRC we also have some performance fixes in the trunk, that
didn't went into 1.4 because they are too intrusive.
