Just today I've been wondering which is the preferred format of lilypond users to read the documentation. I know that some prefer PDF (and especially the PDF protfolio provided by Nick, which allows search across the manuals) and very few (I guess) like the info format. Probably most prefer HTML. I think also that most don't want to print 800 pages that are going to be obsolete after one or two years (depending on the release cycle). Not to mention that you can't search or jump on paper. My opinion is that a printed documentation doesn't make much sense. What would be interesting, especially for commercial/funding purposes, is a book which can offer something that the documentation doesn't offer already.
