Alexander - Best proposal I've understood. If/when implemented I see only two continuing costs. The user must maintain selected multiple versions - seems reasonable. Developers must make stable versions available in perpetuity, but continuing support is not necessary - also seems reasonable.
Anybody willing and able to implement? - Bruce -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Brock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 17, 2006 3:42 PM To: Fairchild Cc: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: Re: Evolutionary User Strategery Hello, > However, modifying 'finished' scores to be acceptable by the > latest version is not reasonable.

One solution could be to write a wrapper which reads the \version and decides which installation of lilypond must be used. If there is no exact match just use the next higher version. That would increase execution time by something like 1/20sec on normal PCs.
