I am thinking about what it means if lilypond.org can no longer provide the
Apple SDK, etc for automatic download by GUB.

It seems like anyone that wants to do GUB builds for macOS would need to
get an Apple account and download the software themselves. Less convenient,
but how much harder then setting up LilyDev? To me it doesn't seem like a
show-stopper.

Are there any other considerations here related to software usage rights?
GPL v2 versus v3 was mentioned earlier; can anyone provide an overview of
what that change means for a LilyPond 64 bit macOS effort?
