Thanks, I’m well aware of the licensing issues, and they’ve already been discussed in this thread.

Then MacStadium gets used to produce the Mac builds. Exactly. But why are we rehashing all this now? > Automation would be possible, with Travis or Cirrus.

I’d *like* it to integrate with the existing build system, but I don’t think that will be possible unless Apple changes its license agreements, or unless we can run GUB on a Mac (which I seem to recall hearing would likely be difficult and not a good use of our effort right now). > -- > Karlin High > Missouri, USA Best, > > -- Marnen Laibow-Koser mar...@marnen.org http://www.marnen.org Sent from Gmail Mobile _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
