> My personal upgrading experience is similar. I had a hiatus of a couple of
years (at least) when I didn't use LilyPond (dating back to around 2.13.17
or so, IIRC), but recently, I was using 2.16.2 on my main computer until it
became necessary to tweak things to fit a stylesheet I was working on, then
I installed LilyDev on my iMac and eventually fired up my old Debian box. I
used 2.17.26 or so for awhile, until I found out that the most recent
releases incorporate MIDI panning, so right now I do my work on a hacked
version of 2.17.95 for Mac (copying in modified versions of the part
combiner Scheme file and the Feta font). Even though it doesn't take much
to integrate those hacks now, I'm reluctant to do much upgrading unless
there's a benefit to doing so.
