Hi Karlin,
yes, such a periodic series of posts would be nice!
Indeed. Other than doing it on a monthly basis we could also have a
series of posts for each new release.
I think this could either be written by a developer who is actually
involved in following how the repository emerges - or maybe even better
by an interested user. It shouldn't be that hard to learn making sense
of logs like this: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lilypond.git/log/
toghether with some handholding from the developers.
Would you like to write such posts? Anyone else?
If there is activity on the blog we will find someone to maintain it.
That's only partially true, unfortunately. The main task of a
"maintainer" is to actually recruit such activity. One option is to
continually write posts, which I had done for quite some time. (Maybe
that even kept some potential contributors away, I don't know.) But for
the nature of this blog (and probably also for the community itself) it
would be much better to have a number of regular plus numerous
occasional (and even one-time) contributors. But to get people to
contribute requires more or less permanent attention, and without at
least one person taking over some responsibility (better two or three
but rather not more) it will probably just not work.

Hi all,
"Scores of Beauty" (http://lilypondblog.org) is LIlypond's
semi-official
community blog, not my personal publicity platform. Therefore I'm
not happy
to see that withdrawing from actual activity on my side seems to
result in
basically a total mute of the blog.
I don't see how I will get back to keeping the blog alive in the near
future, so I'd like to raise everyone's attention to the value of
having
such a blog. I urgently suggest that people decide to contribute to
it, and
in particular I would be happy if someone could step up and take
over some
editorial responsibility. It's not *that* much actual investment of
time but
rather a spirit of commitment that is necessary.
I'd be happy about anyone getting in touch with me and Paul Morris
about
maintaining the blog.
Best
Urs
