It can always use improvements, but it's notoriously fiddly code.  The 
more test cases you can throw at new work, the better.  You'll end up 
with something that works perfectly, except for the weird circumstances 
when it doesn't, and that's why the code is so full of spaghetti 
workarounds.

It hasn't been touched in awhile.  We generally get away with this, 
because convert-ly is generally reliable.

Yves and I are the most recent two to take spells working on it, but 
neither one of us has been active in quite some time.

src/document/io/LilyPondExporter.cpp is the heart and soul of the thing. 
  There is also src/gui/dialogs/LilyPondOptionsDialog.cpp and 
src/gui/general/LilyPondProcessor.cpp handles the command line 
conversion stuff.

I'm not really interested in doing any work right now, and probably 
never again, but I'm still around, and a bunch of it is still my code. 
I'd certainly be interested in seeing someone freshen it up and get 
things up to date.
