This was answered a couple of days back on the mailing list.

Try convert-ly --help...

convert-ly needs to know for what version of lilypond your file has been write
for in order to convert it.
You can either put a \version "x.x.x" statement in your lilypond file or use the
--from=version convert-ly's switch.

The short answer is: just delete the \notes, and it will work, as far as I can
tell.

This should be changed on the web pages as well...

Yes, but still you should not expect to be able to do anything useful with LilyPond without reading most of the tutorial, at least. And, the tutorial for version 2.3 is different from the tutorial for version 2.2. Actually, I think it makes sense to keep the general description at the web pages synchronized with the latest stable version. A user who is daring enough to download the latest development version should also be prepared to meet some extra problems.
