Hi Urs,
well at times I try to earn some money with lilypond. And sometimes I
do. But it is far less than it needs to be, so that I don't need to work
in other fields.
But you can count me in, if you need someone ;)
Best,
Jan-Peter

Hi all,
<disclaimer>this is more or less hypothetical and nothing to be
excited about</disclaimer>.
I realize that I don't have a real idea about the size of our
community, and particularly regarding the availability of music
typesetters who could offer reliably continuous engraving services.
If I should be asked to engrave a big score (as fast as possible) in a
commercial context and wouldn't want to reply "well, I will ask around
and see how many people I can get together", what could I say? Would
it be realistic to say that we could (at any time) provide a team of
10 quailfied engravers working full time on a project? Or 15-20
working half time?
And what if it were a request for continuous work? Is it realistic to
say there are always enough engravers at hand to accept work?
I feel that one aspect that makes publishers hesitate to consider
LilyPond is exactly this question: They know that there will always be
a sufficient number of available and qualified Finale and Sibelius
users, and presumably even Score users, but they don't have an idea
about this with LilyPond.
Any opinions or estimates?
Urs
