Good! I mean, not good, but good that we found this problem. Discovering things like this is precisely why I made the switch. I'll look into this on the weekend. > PS: The reason why I hadn't realized this until now is that I'm still using my > AJAX search in the manuals http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/ajax/, which I > haven't rebased on current master, since so much happened in master since > then). Any news on how we proceed with the AJAX search??? The news is that I spend an average of 2 hours on lilypond every day, but routine tasks plus working on GUB occupies all that task. It doesn't make sense to stop working on GUB, since it took me ages to get accustomed to its layout and now it's fresh in my mind. If more people helped with the mundane tasks, I'd have more time to complete GUB, work on the website, and then start looking at AJAX. If more people helped with the website, that would cross off that task, and I could start looking at AJAZ sooner. I'm not really going to ask that people help with GUB, since that's a hugely complicated task (solving a hugely complicated problem, so the complexity is understandable). I regret the continual delays in looking at AJAX, but I'm only willing to spend so much time on lilypond. And this is including my almost-total lack of a social life... if I ever make any friends [in this city], let alone finding a girlfriend, my lilypond work will drop further. We desperately need to get more people involved, but there's no point starting GOP until we can support the new contributors, and that's not happening until the CG and lilypond tk git gui thing is ready, and that's not happening until somebody looks at it (and as far as I know, absolutely no frogs have attempted to look at it), etc etc. I'm willing to look at those things myself, but those would jostle with AJAX in terms of what I do after GUB and the new website are done. *shrug* if it sounds like I'm massively frustrated over this state of affairs... well, yes, I am. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
