We are proud to announce the release of GNU LilyPond 2.12 “Rune”.
Our joy is tinged with sadness, as long-time LilyPond contributor and friend Rune Zedeler passed away on the 2nd of July, 2008. This release is dedicated to him.
Rune was a computer programmer, a musician and a valued contributor to LilyPond. He had been enthusiastically involved in the project for the past six years, and he will be sorely missed in our community.
Happy music typesetting!
