Do you have any suggestions about how I could “help out with the Mac build 
scripts”?  I’ve been to that site, and I’m not sure what I could best do to 
help out.
Try using the Makefile that’s there to build a newer version of LilyPond.  See 
what breaks.  Submit a merge request (or at least an issue) so we know we need 
to fix it.

Alternatively, you may want to help out on the automated build pipeline (which 
only barely exists right now).

If documentation is a problem, *definitely* raise an issue on the GitLab 
project.  I want this to be as approachable as such a complex project can be.

OK.  These are great suggestions.

It may be two weeks or so before I can jump into this.  I’m swamped with the 
end of semester challenges.

I’ll give it a go as soon as I can.

Thanks,

Carl
