sponsorship offer: Lyric fixes (GSoC, etc.)

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hello all,

I’m looking at my composition schedule for the next three years, and it 
includes a huge number of pieces with lyrics: two new stage musicals, plus a 
major revision of an existing one; a chamber opera; a concert-length song 
cycle; a concert-length work for orchestra, chorus, and vocal soloists; three 
choral works; and at least a dozen other smaller pieces with vocals (e.g., 
writing assignments for my musical theatre composium, etc.).

To face engraving all those works with the current Lyric issues intact is 
daunting, to say the least. The edition-engraver has been a huge help to me in 
my quest to have the best-looking scores, but the manual tweaking required is 
just overwhelming.

So I would like to re-issue (for about the fifth time) my sponsorship offer for 
one or more developers who could tackle the Lyric-related issues and get them 
knocked off the list for good. I’m certain there are others on the list who 
would benefit from these fixes as well, and might be convinced to contribute to 
the cause.

Thanks,
Kieren.
