zynaddsubfx is just being basically replaced with yoshimi, which is the
currently developed fork of zynadd... i was wondering about lilypond as
well, but yeah, the idea is to have musescore included as the core notation
software... and again, these are NOT getting taken out of the repos, just
not included by default... the idea is that there will be a metapackage,
something like ubuntustudio-podcaster or whatever that would have audacity
in it... in theory, there could be one for engraving that would have
lilypond... keep the feedback coming, i think its helpful to sound these
options out.. thanks...
