One or two quibbles with the language on this page:

" Everything looks neat and tiny, "
should this read: 
" Everything looks neat and tidy," 

In the next example a motive is printed twice: "
should this read: 
In the next example a motif is printed twice:

" Sibelius is their major rival and they appear to be especially strong in the
European market. "
should this read: 
" Sibelius is their major rival and it appears to be especially strong in the
European market. "

" The Finale beaming can be easily improved "
should this read: 
" The Finale beaming can easily be improved  "


Also the beaming in the example

(bass staff, bar 29) 
may not be what you wish to include in an example of what lilypond can do.
If the caveat is a reference to this:
"it appears a bit too aggressive in shortening some of the stems"
it seems somewhat of an understatement.

I look forward to 2.14 and a .deb to put on my Mint.

Hope this helps
