Public release of LyX version 2.3.3
===================================

We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.3.3. This is the third
maintenance release in the 2.3.x series. 

You can download LyX 2.3.3 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/.

LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based 
on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance. It is
released under a Free and Open Source Software license.

LyX 2.3.3 is the result of on-going efforts to make our stable version more 
reliable and more stable. One important change is that emergency files are
now renamed when users wish to save them. As a result, older emergency files
are not over-written. One major update allows for the editing of the contents
of the user-provided premable, and the contents of ERT insets, in external
editors, a request that goes back to 2003 and bug #991.

If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.3, please open a bug report at
http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you're not sure whether it
really is a bug, you can e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel 
<at> lists.lyx.org) and ask. 

If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the documentation 
that comes with LyX (under the Help or Apple menu) and the LyX wiki, which 
is at http://wiki.lyx.org/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the 
LyX users' list (lyx-users <at> lists.lyx.org), where you will find an 
active community of people who are ready to help.

We hope you enjoy using LyX 2.3.3.

The LyX team.
