Some final thoughts, since we are not going to do this at this point.
With all the pushback I am seeing, I have little further interest in
giving my time and resources to implementing this. To a certain extent I
regret even bringing up the topic.
People should go back and read my posts as this

Is there a way to get png output using some internal setting? #(ly:
set-option 'resolution 300) works fine, but only if I use the -fpng command
line option. I need to set this conditionally in the .ly file. Any way to do
this? Should I be looking at guile?
Thank you,
John
Speaking up as one of the silent majority on this topic, now that
it's mentioned, as I think I have two cents to add.
Silent majority?
I always thought and still think the Email prefering fraction to be the
silent majority. But that's just my personal feeling and I do not have

This has been a fascinating discussion bringing up many aspects I would not
have thought about, having no background in mailing list administration or
managing an online forum. The discussion of blocked access in some countries

Hi Andrew, Jean
Hi all (on and off thread)
I have followed this thread (and its predecessor re mailing list
configuration and easening admins' work) for days now.
First of all: Thanks sooo much to all of you who invest hours and hours
for Lilypond, the community, and all the infrastructure. It's

Did they switch from a mailing list, or from other forum/discussion software?
Other forum software; e.g. Steinberg previously used phpBB which they had set
up well (it's free and well-known, but a maintenance nightmare, as I know from
working with it). I've not tried
