Hi, I am a once-developer for Lilypond mainly involved in the effort to add Braille Music support. I guess that makes it pretty obvious to those who know who I am, but I do not mind. I do have git push permission, but I don't think that I ever used it in anger.
For me, like may others, time was a big problem. Without doubt, there is an *enormous* learning curve particularly wrt to the use of Scheme, the learning of which is a significant barrier in itself. I did not experience particular problems with personalities and I found the other developers pretty helpful and pleasant enough. What would have helped me would have been a "big brother" type figure to help with the initial grunt work of getting something simple working within Lilypond which would have provided a base for extension and development of the facility by myself. I guess that's asking a bit much for a project that is largely powered by people solving their own particular problems. For me, though, I have moved onto different things although at some point in the future it would be nice to come back to it.
