As we are looking for windows-experienced developers I really think that
the ubuntu way would be better, it is easier for us windowsers.
If you guys think it would be useful then I'll have a go at it. I
think I can remaster xubuntu with all the Lilypond build tools and get
it under 700MB to fit on a CD. I would go with Debian but the tool
"remastersys" is specifically made for doing Ubuntu remixes and I'm
not sure it would work with straight Debian.
I'm not sure if I can build it in such a way as to include the git
source files. Normally that's the sort of thing in an individual
user's /home directory and would be left out of the remix. When
someone installs from one of these remixes it works the same way as
with regular Ubuntu, they create user accounts at the time of
installation. I feel that if I can get it under 700 megs with all of
the build tools and with the git program installed, then just about
any user can open a terminal and copy-paste the git commands you put
together in the CG to grab the source code. I've copy/pasted from CG
several times myself and it works perfectly.
