What kept you from doing so? At any rate, the "minimal example" note was brought by Simon, a few not-really-helpful hints based on the non-minimal example came from others including yours truly, and Harm provided the actual analysis after minimalizing the existing example. So the non-minimality contributed to a few bad answers. Now the "minimal example" admonishment was probably a bit over the top, trying to fend for the champions of the list maybe a bit more than they'd have needed. But the general gist is not incorrect. To mitigate some of the bad blood spent over it, Harm put in quite some effort expounding the process of creating a minimal example. Basically, it was an attempt of making this converge to a community effort again. The somewhat spread out effort and result overwhelmed Mark to a degree where I am afraid that less registered than if we had just left all the work and justification to Harm, providing a single somewhat coherent voice rather than mob help. Maybe we can do better next time. This turned out to be a bad mixture of group dynamics and involved personalities. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
