Ok, I know that I'm a bit behind the times, but I've just uploaded
LyX/Win 1.3.7-3 to http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyX137. This thing uses
the new Aspell dictionaries and seems to work well.
Moving on to LyX/Win 1.4, what should I compile? The release tar ball or
a snapshot of the 1.4.x tree including the bug fixes that have gone in
since 1.4.0 was announced?
Maybe it would be a good idea to provide both a 1.4.0 installer as well
as a monthly development preview, so Windows will also be able to help
testing.
I reviewed the currently available installers (the official installer
and the LyXWinInstaller) and their scripts. Both seem to have some flaws
in the way their install and uninstall components and in the NSIS scripts.
In my opinion, the best thing to do would be to combine the best parts
of both installers into a new official installer. That's also less
confusing for an end-user compared to having both official and
unofficial versions.
