Dear fellow Haifux LyXers,

A LyX meeting will take place on WEDNESDAY, June 26th at 16:00 to 20:00, 
in room 815 of the EE Meyer building.

If you're like us, you love LyX, and wish you could do everything from it:
- Write your papers with the conference style file
- Collaborate with LaTeX-only people
- Use it for a blog...

Problem: not everything works. Solution: report bugs and fix problems 
together, and eat pizza!

- Lightning talks. Currently planned (you are invited to show us 
anything cool and not well known also!):
- How to write Feynman diagrams in LyX (Ronen)
- Moving a paper back from LaTeX, before and after bug reports (Daniel)
- A quick dev demo: how to report, find, solve and patch a simple bug 
that keeps a valid latex document from compiling under LyX.
- 3-4 hours of joint hacking, bug reporting and whatever we want.

Later:
Make a mailing list or forum for further discussion, a github project to 
share useful templates etc, and whatever else we find useful.

Before:
Please forward to any other LyX user in the area, let us know if you 
want to give a demo or have any other ideas. Let us know if you are 
interested in general and coming this time in particular.
