To tag a number on it: if this was deemed mission-critical by somebody with funding, I'd estimate two weeks full-time and a price tag of about €1000 for myself. That's rather on the cheap side for hired work, but way out of the bounty system for a mostly volunteer-driven project. So I rather expect this to happen as a multi-volunteer effort when it can no longer be put off, most probably when Ubuntu moves to guile-2.0. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
