I think one ppa should only hold the official final releases, with
version suffixes, and one lyx, which updates the ubuntu one. This should
be the one for the user who really want's to be on the save side.

One other ppa should have the opposite - the unstable / experimental
daily builds from trunc. This is the ppa for the developer / tester /
very adventorous user and *not* for production use

then there are the beta releases and the daily builds of BRANCH_2_0_X -
based on earlier statements, I would actually split them into two ppas,
as betas are more unstable then the daily builds of BRANCH_2_0_X -
correct? In addition, betas are releases and should therefore be in a
beta ppa.

I would have (in each ppa, package are sorted by interest)

lyx-stable ppa:
  lyx-2.0 == lyx
  lyx-stable-daily : 2.0.x branch
  lyx-1.6

lyx-devel ppa:
  lyx-beta (maybe merge these two)
  lyx-alpha
  lyx-devel-daily

I am not sure about the naming, but daily builds from the stable branch actually belong with real releases. And alpha and beta software (from trunk) belongs with development branch.

BTW, why use the terminology daily instead of nightly (just curious)?
