Hi Jean,

I need to collaborate with colleagues owning various music-typesetting
software, mostly Sibelius and Finale.

I'd love to tell them "Use LilyPond and all will be fine", but as long
as LilyPond is a dead end with regard to xml-export this is a
showstopper.

The other one is the missing Mac-64-bit support, I know it's possible
to get LilyPond there, but reading the threads explaning the howto, I
have to say it's way to complicated. My collegues are musicians not
interested in solving computer-issues. If something is not working
out-of-the-box, people will trash it and look for something else...

Cheers,
  Harm
