Urs and all, What happens to orphaned git repos? Not a case I am familiar with. I'd be happy to fork the OLL repo and take over the management and development. Should I do that? Are you going to delete the existing repo? Andrew

I think that Urs did not say he's taking it down. I think he did say he's not making his future improvements public. He's leaving it up on GitHib, but his work will be in a private Git repository. Thanks, Carl Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S®6 active, an AT 4G LTE smartphone Get Outlook for

Urs, I don't follow. Are you taking down OLL? There are surely many who depend on it. It's not clear to me what you are saying. I fear you have reached the wrong conclusion. Even if it is of value to only a dozen people, is it not still valuable? Don't underestimate the importance - I could

Well, despite two of today's statements arguing otherwise I must say I have come to a different conclusion. I have given myself exactly two weeks to make a determination, and I realized I have obviously overestimated the value and impact of my pet project openLilyLib. The two weeks until yesterday

\reshape is nice! I would try to make it clear in the documentation, if \reshape is included in the core, that \shape is the legacy form to be eventually deprecated and replaced by \reshape. Syntactically, it makes no sense to have both functions available for the same thing. If there could be

Sorry, I just discovered that the installation instructions for cloning with Git explain how to clone oll-core. Not having had any experience myself with cloning with Git before, I thought I had cloned the whole repository. I didn't realize the packages had to be cloned separately one by one.

Hi JanPeter, I have contributed a bit to OLL and its machinery and I think it is an important and indeed necessary resource. I am not sure why the uptake is so limited, but I think somehow we have to communicate how easy it is to install and use more effectively. One thing that concerns me with

Hi all, I would like to repeat Urs' call to participate in the work of OLL. I share the opinion that it is a very versatile and powerful toolbox. My own contributions are mainly the edition-engraver and the lalily-templates. If you have any questions about what they are and how they work, feel
