No, it means that any change/feature might not persist into the next stable version, and also that you may pick a bad version. Basically, picking an unstable version is something you should not do if you are not prepared to update next month (or week) again. Or be prepared to downgrade in the case of problems. The stable versions are more of the "install and forget" kind of quality. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
