n. Just a quick follow up question: does Schikker's List use its
own custom version of LilyPond (that has been optimized for partial
compilation) or does it use standard LilyPond with external code providing
for the partial compilation? Just curious...
Thanks,

Yes,
I agree with this freak called Janek ;) Actually I can hear there some
reverberation of my own ideas ;) That's great that you want to make
Lilypond more user-friendly and make the initial learning curve not that
steep, but it the same time don't forget our you Ultimate Goal. That's
awesome! :)

Yes it is, _but_ the question of _how_ to achieve the improved usibility
is dangerous. We should focus on the unique characteristic of lilypond:

If dinosaur means that they will die out as time passes, I don't agree.
Considering the recent emphasis on web-techniques, I feel like some

That's a difficult issue, and I think you both (Janek and David) are

Post Scriptum:
after rereading my previous email, i see that it sounds as if i believed
that implementing the Ultimate Goal (i.e. automatic engraving) and
effectively improving "efficiency" were mutually exclusive. I don't think
that's the case - in some cases the most effective (= with the bigges

Hi devels,
I think I have some serious feedback to share, and it may lead to even
more feedback and input.
This week I had the opportunity to present myself, LilyPond and my
