If you really need lyx 1.4 quickly - check out the source and compile it yourself.
I've been using it for half a year, on linux.

Hum, right now it's impossible to build 1.4cvs with mingw because of automake change. Thanks god I haven't reconfigured since before the change. AFAIK, the only solution would be to deliver source snapshot with already generated Makefiles. Maybe it is already available somewhere?

Before pre3 I used Michael Gerz' instructions to compile LyX1.4.0 cvs
which are fairly involved. I was able to install lyx1.4.0pre3 though,
without any file editing, just docs: Install_Win32, build_lyxwin.sh and
package_lyxwin.sh. It took a fair amount of disk space and memory.

This worked though it took awhile even though I linked statically.
I did not try the cvs after this because I read about automake. The
improved official 1.3.7 version is due out Monday (maybe Tuesday).

Best regards,
Stephen
