Double Amen. If a person is that mad about LyX, he should do one of these things: 1) Fork the project and do a better job. 2) Do what I did when I was mad at LyX and try to write equivalent software using an outliner and a bunch of Lua scripts. 3) Pay through the nose for an inferior commercial product,have to do license tracking, and hope they give better (or even as good) tech support than the LyX crew has. Nothing scientific, but on projects I'm involved with it seems like more and more people are saying "I can't write code, but please do this <you fill in the major job> for me."
