The way I do this in GUILE (where I am a regular contributor), is to send a bug report to the devel-list. Then, I usually don't wait for the reply, but start to analyse the problem and look for a fix. Once I have that, I reply to my own bugreport, saying "fixed", including the analysis of the problem. This procedure may be slightly elaborate and narcissistic, but doing all these steps makes it clear what the problem and the fix is, not in the last place, writing things down makes the real problem more clear to yourself. In general, if you have a good idea, then Just Do It, and don't wait for permission. If you are in doubt, then ask a question, and wait for the answer. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
