There are some hacks in the template that rely on a fixed distance between staves. I've removed those. Since it might be a while before they show up on the web pages, the fixes are to replace
      \override DynamicText #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)
      \override Hairpin #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.5)
with
      \override DynamicLineSpanner #'Y-offset = #0

If you want to get rid of some more space, change the minimum-Y-extent line so that it is set to ##f (this might be a good idea by default).

Ok, now it starts working! The ##f though doesn't bring anything, at least if I write:

\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = ##f

It's effect is only to shift the whole dynamic line up so it is inside the upper staff.

Have you tried
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(0 . 0)

Tried, but this makes things worse again! No, the -1 . 1 is ok, it could maybe still be modified a bit. To demonstrate it: with 0 . 0 I get seven pages, with -1 . 1 only six! Have still a problem with those stems connecting from one system of piano staff to the other. The systems get somehow unaturally spread, and I suppose this tweak causing this. Then the stems (which are just manually set to a specific length to meet the stems in the upper system) are too short and won't connect. Well, I will some times provide a minimal example for that...

But thanks for that piano template update anyways!
