Some spam is so funny, I can't even get angry at it! I have a legal question, though. Does this mean that the members of this list are, collectively, the next of kin, or is it the LyX program itself? And if so, is this 1.1.6 or 1.2 CVS? We could see some ugly wrangling here; 1.1.6 is the elder version, but 1.2 may be able to make a stronger claim to being the "real" LyX. My vote is that the money go into a trust fund to be claimed by version 2.0 when it comes of age. No GUI-indpendence, no inheritance.
