Hi

I have eagerly been awaiting the development of the Corboard module for Lyx
outlined here: http://wiki.lyx.org/GSoC/NonLinearWriting in 2013 as a
continuation of what Rob Oakes developed as Lyx-outline. I used to be using
Lyx-outline but then this Google summer code project came up and everything
stagnated... I would really hate to see this disappear as it was one of the
most useful things ever for a researcher like myself.

Does anyone know what is the status?

All the best!
Ketil

Hi Ketil, this is the most recent that I've seen:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/148955
It looks like the code is in good shape. It just needs to be merged
and some of the code needs to be refactored. So perhaps it's just a
lack of developer time. You might try contacted Rob directly. I'm not
sure he follows lyx-devel and he might want to know that there is
interest.

Also, please let us know if by chance you are willing to help.

Best,

Scott

Hi
Thanks for your reply! I have tried to contact Rob, but he has vanished it
seems - has not updated his homepage, twitter or launchpad
https://code.launchpad.net/~lyx-outline-devel. I will try to contact Xueqing
Shan who got the Google summer code assignment and see if he knows anything.

I will be more than wiling to help with testing and translating, but I can
do nothing when it comes to coding unfortunately.

All the best
Ketil

Sounds good. I'm interested in getting some news on this also. Thanks
for being interested and trying to push things forward.

Best,

Scott
