All this will be done on the 2.5 branch. If you want a backport to
2.4, that would cost an additional EUR 20 (USD 25). 2.6 will be
released in one to two months, hopefully.
Of course, you're welcome to garner some fellow sponsor to keep the
cost per person down.

Gee, I don't know... that seems a bit steep. I'm only a student, and
so my finances are not unlimited... note I can get Finale academic
edition for $300, Sibelius academic edition for $215.

Hi,
I can understand that you think it is exorbitant, but you maybe you
can take a look from my perspective. I'd really want Lilypond to be
the standard for music notation, and over the past 8 years I've but
more or less 4 full-time unpaid man-years into this project to make it
so. It's been tremendous fun, but since I started a real job, I ceased
to have a social life. For that reason, I've just quit that job,
hoping to make a (small) living off LilyPond.
BTW, if anyone wants to pool together money for a feature, I'd
consider not shuffling around the money on paypal, since every time
that happens, Paypal takes out another cut.
