It's probably a good idea to start with a version of Lilypond that works
well for you, and don't upgrade that installation very often while you're in
the middle of your work.
Is the team using CVS? I don't remember if that was mentioned. I
personally use CVS at home and at work for all developments. I can
put all kinds of personalized bells and whistles on a program, and still
upgrade it when the new version comes out.
