Hi,

 I was wondering, could you provide some description for the NEWS file
 of what you have changed in the ancient notation in your previous
 patch?

White mensural ligatures now conform more closely to renaissance usage
(on the input side maximae are allowed; the output has changed completely).
Basic ligatures are (should be) now OK;
dots, accidentals and invalid input are still problematic.

As explained in the description attached to the same post
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2005-02/msg00198.html),
writing a ligature is ambiguous, so the exact look of a ligature found
in a 500 year old manuscript may or may not be reproducable.
