Graham's worst fears... If I remember correctly, we had two applications for the Google Summer of Code, and only one has been accepted under the GNU umbrella. Before dispersion fights start, it might make sense asking the other applicant whether an admittedly smaller sum like this might enable him to embark on his project or part of it. It would appear that the prize itself would be newsworthy for trying to convince schools particularly in France to consider opening venues for their coursework to make use of LilyPond, an enterprise that Valentin has previously undertaken with somewhat lukewarm results IIRC. Make a ponding of the award, and point to the contest site (if any) for the details. Like the awarded sum. I'd find it weird to flash numbers on our main website. Certainly a nice endorsal. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
