Why would you want them to do anything other than what you think? > I already exposed my thoughts, and that is all.

This characterization is _not_ fair. What I have pointed out to you to your considerable indignation is that agreeing on something, either more or less or strongly, does not get the job done. It would be different if this list was read by a host of coders who are just bored and waiting for suggestions what to do with their time. That is not the case. Any task getting done needs someone postponing other tasks he himself is working on or interested in. So by far the most successful way for getting anything done is doing as much of it by oneself as one can. That may include shepherding the discussion and boiling it down to identifiable issues that can be brought to a conclusion sufficient for the bug squad to pick out concrete issues for the issue tracker. > So I will happily leave things as they are and continue to simply use > my tweaks and overrides as I usually do. See, and that's where things get strange: you claim to use tweaks and overrides to get particular behavior, but you don't share them as part of getting the weight lifted and making people see how to go about the change. They may be a bad idea, but they are at least a starting point. It's much easier mentally to tell somebody how he could do something better than it is to write stuff up from scratch. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
