I just asked this as well, which I guess provides a partial reply to your Q.

Hi,

I just noticed these broken links

  http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Manuals#download
  http://ftp.lyx.de/Documentation/en/Customization.lyx
  http://ftp.lyx.de/Documentation/en/Customization.pdf

guess they're all broken.

There's also a seemingly outdated (from y 2009) merged manual available at:

  http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Documentation#toc2
  
https://wiki.lyx.org/uploads//LyX/Manuals/1.4.2/merged_manuals/merged_manuals-1.4.2.pdf

However, besides fixing the links, considering the powerful conversion 
capabilities of LyX, I'd propose to keep at least some manuals accessible as 
HTML pages on the web, rather than, or in addition to, .lyx/.pdf downloads.

Thanks,

T.

There used to be some version in wiki.
I planned to output full xhtml output ofour manuals on the web automatically
once #4501 is backported.

 They are here:

 I keep meaning to put XHTML versions on the web, if only to illustrate what 
 LyX can do.

I think that simple make xhtml-doc rule can be created with proper destination
folder in www module and this just commited by svn...
