I am sort of surprised that you consider newer versions incomprehensible, or rather that you feel that the changes interfere with your use of LilyPond. Have you tried just using a newer version without bothering about the changes? There is very little that will have stopped working since 2.18.2 (and for some of the more complex stuff, convert-ly does a good job of upgrading existing files while usually making stuff easier on the eyes). It's more like new things will work as well and a number of things are much easier to do now. So particularly if some things (old or new) are incomprehensible to you and you would be tempted to ask for help achieving something, using a version likely to be used by the people wanting to help you will make life easier for all involved. In the long run, the kind of work involved for moving on stays the same regardless of when you decide to upgrade, and the more you trail behind, the more likely the mismatch of versions in use will make it harder to get useful feedback. And that's assuming that there is nothing at all useful for you in the changes. That being said, I don't think we remove existing installers from the download sites. -- David Kastrup
