My understanding is that, for us, the sole purpose of the LinuxAudio site is 
as one with a high bandwidth internet connection that is therefore suitable 
for hosting our large downloads.  I'm guessing that the LilyPond Software 
Design site used to be one where there could be something like additional 
support for lily - typesetting maybe? and it's now fallen into disuse.  If 
you think it's important I could contact the maintainer of the site?
