Hello Guillaume,

This is great news! I have briefly tried to understand how this thing 
works, but my available bandwidth is not sufficient.

Are you comfortable having your ppa mentioned on the LyX download page?

I am interested (at least curious) to see those scripts, but I have not 
been clever enough to find them. Where are they?

Best,
