Too bad.  It's quite clear here.  We'll have to try something else.

Yes, that has been tried (by me :-)  It works, but compiling LilyPond
on Windows is not for the faint of heart.  You quite some additional
stuff.  There's no handy and standard way to distribute binary
packages either.  Hopefully this all gets a bit easier when Cygnus
uses rpm for their distribution.

Jeffrey Reed has a page up at

but is't getting a bit stale.
