I'm not likely to invest myself much with GUB myself. The main incentive would be to do this as part of trying to align oneself closer with the GNU project in the hope/expectations that others use and contribute to GUB as a consequence. How much the LilyPond project would be profiting as a result if at all is not something I can really estimate. It is clear that at the current point of time, not much is happening with GUB, but it's not all that clear that other people's work on GUB would in turn help LilyPond's use case. > I'll be glad if we get back on thread. Well, you were talking about a github-internal move. First step would likely be to communicate with Phil and figure out what GUB repository he is actually working with. His internet provider apparently is currently Ddos-attacked, so we probably need to wait until this calms down. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
