Yes.

Lilybuntu is a virtual machine.  It can be run in vmware or
virtualbox on top of linux, windows, or macos.  We've had two new
documentation writers using lilybuntu exclusively for the past 6
months, on a mixture of windows and osx machines.

It works.  It's not hard.  However, the instructions are not as
clear as they could be.  Kieren knows this.  When he asked about
lilypond programming a few months ago, I told him to wait until
I'd worked on the lilybuntu docs.  I've taken a quick glance at
them, and have identified a few problems.  I have not fixed those
problems yet, because all the other emergencies in lilypond,
including (but not exclusively) the bug squad.

Any other questions?
