I wouldn't mind using it to finish my skyline work!  That'll easily be five 
weeks of my life (around 1 000 €), and it'd allow me to focus on something 
other than fundraising...

I'd rather keep the award for people on the development team, as it has been 
officially given to the people on the author's list on the website (that's who 
I put on the application).

There'll be no dispersion fight.  No worst fears.  It'll be very simple.  As 
agreed upon before I applied:

1) Within one (1) week from the timestamp on this e-mail, send me an e-mail 
letting me know if you have any projects that this could be used for.  No need 
to write anything elaborate: I know you, I know LilyPond, and I know how hard 
it is to fix things.  2-3 sentences will suffice!

2) Give me an amount, in euros, that you need for this project.

I'll dole it out accordingly and send an e-mail to the list letting them know 
what I did.

Cheers,
MS
