We're missing consensus.  I think that if there were a SponsorshipMeister, not 
unlike the BugMeister, we could do really cool stuff like this.  Besides the 
monetary aid, this brings huge recognition to the community and gets a lot of 
people on board.

LoMuS is already a great step in this direction - it took me 1 hour max to fill 
out and send the application and as a result we'll have better skylines at the 
end of the summer.  We already have a great piece of software that speaks for 
itself - we just need someone (or a group of people) dedicated to contacting 
people and seeking out collaborations.  But before that, as I said above, we 
need consensus, and I know that there are a few people who don't want to see 
LilyPond go in this direction.
