Possibly this one. <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2016-11/msg00641.html>Or at some other point in the previous November 2016 discussion on this topic. That was the one that really hooked me on the LilyPond community. The one where I saw people at the intersection of music engraving, music theory, computer science, and software development with some of the most highly-advanced programming languages - but NOT noviciacy with Mother Teresa's order, I assume - these people handled a community disruption with a surprising amount of grace and intelligence.
Looks like that was a really happening month for lilypond-user; I see 1,283 posts. It even included a "New Website" discussion. Maybe we should start one of those again too, just for completeness. :)
I did archive the public-Github website design proposal from that discussion, since I thought it was approaching a Platonic ideal of some sort. (Refresh-not-replace, static site, potentially JavaScript-free all CSS, mobile-device-responsive, little disruption to existing infrastructure, etc)
On second thought, I'll only re-start that discussion (not immediately, but in the future) if the people working on the 2.20 release approve, as it would be even further distracting from that goal.
