So "Wednesday or Thursday" didn't happen (too busy), but the binaries (as well as the source code) are now available from GitLab: https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/packages/27483288 I tested the binaries on my end, as best as I could, and they seem to work well. Give them a try if you want on your end (bonus points for testing on macOS, I can only check on the same machine that also built the binaries, which might hide some problems). Unless I hear something really terrible before tomorrow, I will officially announce the release then. Cheers Jonas
