For me, the complexity of LilyPond itself outplays learning a new programming language by far. Moreover, learning scheme has given me a very helpful and refreshing new perspective on programming. I'm wondering, do you think that learning a new language such as scheme would scare you away from hacking on LilyPond, if you discovered it? > Therefore, you should be careful with moving more and more code into > the Scheme layer. If the former hypothesis was true, then maybe. Or maybe not -- most important is that things get better, simpler, easier to extend and change for the current hackers, imvho.
