I have added a workflow, which includes Lilypond and Frescobaldi, to the wiki page where all of this is being hashed out - *AND I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO ADD TO THE WIKI PAGE* to get more processes and veiwpoints involved in this development process. Bernard, for instance should probably add a workflow that includes Common Music if that task isn't already taken by a superior program or other workflows (maybe even if it is). Without community involvement adjusting the wiki page a lot of the suggestions in this e-mail thread will fall to the dregs of past history without full consideration by all developers.
