Hello Elie,
This is great news. Thank you.
I think that if someone uses TeXLive 2008, it is not a problem for him to continue using current old gregorio version, which still exists. The price for backward compatibility is a late for improvements," sed vinum novum in utres novos"(Mt 9,17) For "ordinary" people, supposing that people using gregorio is ordinary, the most urgent is certainly to have a package that install simply and automatically.

Dear Gregorio users,

After some years of silence and some changes in my personal and professional life, I'm now coming back to Gregorio.

A first step I would like to do is to fix all major broken things and make a new version available (including Windows). In fact I already did quite a lot in this direction, by making lualatex still working fine (and better!) under the future TeXLive 2013. There were some changes in the LuaTeX engine that made lualatex totally broken on the future release, and thus it was quite a bad thing for Gregorio that highly depends on it... Now another coder and I have made lualatex work again and even improved compared to last version; with some interesting bug fixes (including one on ofm fonts used by Gregorio) and new features (some speed improvements mainly). So the first good news is that Gregorio will still be able to rely on lualatex in TeXLive 2013!

But the main goal of this mail is to ask you a question: do some of you still use TeXLive 2008? Supporting this old version makes code in Gregorio more complex and difficult to test for me, so I would like to drop support for it. Not many things have changed since TeXLive 2009, so I guess everything should work fine since then.

I made an updated gregoriotex.tex and gregoriotex.sty (attached), can you please test them and tell me if it works fine on your system? I also attach the new example main.tex...

I just updated something on the svn, these files should appear on it soon...

Thank you,
