You may notice that, after almost 6 months, I've just uploaded a new version of LilyPond. I think this is great news, but there's one downside. Each LilyPond build includes a number of bug fixes and enhancements and we track these with our issue tracker. Once we release the build, we check the issues are really fixed and update the tracker to confirm the fix. The long gestation period of this release means this is something of a mammoth task: over 120 fixes to verify.
I'm requesting everyone who benefits from the work on LilyPond to contribute to this effort. Please look at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/contributor/bug-squad- checklists "Regular maintenance". If everyone who has used LilyPond in the last month or received a helpful answer to a post to this newsgroup verifies a few updates following these instructions, we can do this in a day. If any aspect of the instructions aren't clear, please ask _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
