I second that. We have a central knowledge place (contrary to, say,
C++ or general algorithmical questions), and scattering that is not
beneficial at all. Of course, we are using an old-school e-mail list
instead of the super-duper web interface 6.0 which might be unusual to
all the kids outside. However, so is lilypond itself, which doesn't
have a nifty GUI...
I really like StackExchange! However, given that web possibilities
exist to search and access the lilypond mailing lists, and to ask
questions using gmane, I think it is not useful to set up a new forum.
Just consider a complicated question that nobody on StackExchange can
answer directly: Eventually, someone would step forward and ask the
very question on the lilypond-user (or lilypond-devel) list, then
report back to StackExchange. What a waste of time and resources.
