Re: New LilyPond website

[Urs Liska]

Hi John,

having read through a whole night of posts on this topic I'd be thankful if you 
could always reply inline (and possibly delete content you're not referring 
to). It's very hard to see what you are replying to right now. 

Thanks 
Urs

PS: I'm happy to see the direction of this discussion.
