There are some hacks in the template that rely on a fixed distance between 
staves. I've removed those. Since it might be a while before they show up on 
the web pages, the fixes are to replace
      \override DynamicText #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)
      \override Hairpin #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)
with
      \override DynamicLineSpanner #'Y-offset = #0

If you want to get rid of some more space, change the minimum-Y-extent line so 
that it is set to ##f (this might be a good idea by default).
