I want to rework these a bit using the pdfscreen class that Dekel sent to the list but they should be okay for what you need.

To paraphrase some famous Roman senator/emporer whose name eludes me: We have a paucity of document classes. I'd like to push LyX into the conference and journal submission circuit and hopefully work with major conferences/organisations to ensure they have a LyX template available from the outset. The biggest problem with this that I found when discussing this at the CCP2000 when I was there is that every conference in a given field like Physics has its own idea of what format should be used and to make things more interesting each iteration of a given conference like CCP also uses a different format. (IEEE is so much better in this regard -- they might seem like the borg at times but at least every IEEE conference uses the exact same conference format (which LyX supports). BTW, I've been an IEEE member for 10 years now so I guess I'm one of the borg ;-) So I guess the answer to your question is "yes." Allan. (ARRae)

Re: LyX Development News for 20010117
Talking about publicity, I will be going in Feb to the AGU Infotech Committee meeting in Washington DC. Just in case, Allan, do you have (a link to) your latest overhead sheets on LyX, and could I use them? Of course there's always the Graphical Tour. But hese are pretty knowledgable people and at home with LaTeX and XML/SGML. Also I would like to know the status on AGU classes support (AGUplus). It would require user defined floats like "plate" and "planotable". I understand it is planned, but... Are we prepared to work with AGU on this?

Preferably lots of people submitting to the same places so that maybe just maybe they might think "Hey, someone out there must want to read this" Thanks. Allan. (ARRae)

Can someone try submitting the LDN URL to Linux Today, and other news services please. I just haven't time at the moment. TIA, Allan. (ARRae)
