My suggestion is to use the comments to the tex file you get back from the editors as if they were annotations of a pdf file or comments on a hard-copy version. Look at them, but edit your LyX file directly. Or are the editors editing your text directly on the TeX source? (that would be strange, though). In that case you would have to use a diff program (like diff on linux, or the interface to diff in emacs, etc), to find out exactly what changed between your submitted text and the editors' edited version
