Dear developers & users of Lilypond, as you can see, it takes more and more time for me to release a packaging of lilypond for cygwin. It has several causes: - I'm getting less and less spare time, because of changes in my job and my family - I'm not a Unix guru - I can't really follow the changes in the structure and the build procedure of lilypond - I'm using the native version now
I would like to spend more time with - developing LilyPondTool for jEdit - earning money, which I can donate for the development of LilyPond - cooking patches for LilyPond I'm planning to regularly build a version of LilyPond for cygwin, because I think I will use it for creating my patches, but maintaining would take much more time, because I would have to make it work for everyone, make it conform to the cygwin-structure, read the cygwin-list etc. That's what I don't have time for. So I wish to give up maintaining the Cygwin package of Lilypond. I think it should be taken by someone, who still prefer the cygwin package on the native version. I could share my experiences with him/her, to help taking maintainership.
