Dear Dmytro, I was 20 y in Germany, a highly developped land. Now in Colombia, a want-to-emerge third-world-land. I see everywhere the same pattern (France too): - Buy, if this costs a lot this will be better, - think this is just easy, plug-n-play - install, be disappointed, you need to learn quite much to do more than just entering notes - learn to use, dont ask if you took the right decision, you have paid (much), so dont confess you placed your money wrong. You could feel hurt by that. - have problems, call the hotline. Wait - looong. They dont know the solution... of course not they want to sell the new update or the plugin you dont have. - dont ask if you took the right decision, you have paid (much), so dont confess you placed your money wrong. You could feel hurt by that.
There is a variation before buy: - consult which is the best choice for engraving, but pleeeeaaase dont speak of scripting-programs, "I want to see the score on the screen, click on the screen. I dont want to learn smthg new, I dont want to increase my brain, I dont want to become more productive - LET ME STAY a "normal" person!" And this is in all life like that. Not learning because never puting themselves in question. Look at that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_od3BxJ2W0 This is what I mean. You can gather money for a composition price and beeing just the man OW is speaking about. I suppose, Lilypond-guys doesnt belong the class mentionned in the movie, otherwise they would go down the mainstream... And I suppose - for these reasons - scripting will never have the power to lobby in composition prizes. And I saw the same pattern around organs, organ playing, organ building. Count how many organ builder went against the stream, proposing smthg really new and giving organists and composers more possibilities. All the life is like that. Dont forget that people who have only 100 IQ make the main stream, and 100 is really very very little! 2011/8/18, Dmytro O.
