I think that it is very difficult to set these goals because different things
interest different people. I know that Bertrand and I are chipping away at a
long standing markup-improvement goal, and I'd like to get smoother
2D-object-on-the-plane-distance handling, and there's my dream of implementing
some sort of mixed-integer-quadratic-programming engine in LilyPond (I did some
tests with quantizing quadratic functions using linear functions, but it
generates at least 105600000000 variables for a 500-measure score with 33
columns per measure and normal line widths quantized at horizontal intervals of
0.01...).
I'm sure that other people have their pet projects as well. The ensemble of
these projects is the "direction" of LilyPond, and I don't see why it would
need more of a direction that that. In fact, I think that it is because of
some sorta unified direction that for-profit programs can often miss out on
adding experimental or innovative features.
Cheers,
MS
