Hi everyone, for those who don't know me: I was an active member of the community several years ago, contributed patches, co-authored LilyPond blog, and together with Urs Liska <https://lilypondblog.org/2014/03/oskar-fried-the-big-bang/> typeset an award-winning publication <https://www.best-edition.de/files/theme_files_q/archiv/2014/html/2014_preistraeger_07.htm> with LilyPond. Since then I've pursued a career in software development.
I just came back from music engraving conference organized by Werner and Urs (kudos to them!!), and - inspired by the people present there (most importantly Han-Wen, Mike Solomon and Kieren MacMillan) - I decided to get involved in the project again :-) I should be able to spend about 5-10 hours a week on LilyPond. One of the topics discussed in Salzburg was making it easier to contribute to LilyPond. I have proposed to lead that effort, and the people present agreed to it. I would like to ask the full developer community for your trust*,* too. I will share my plans in a separate thread. cheers, Janek
