After Jan and Han-Wen also became unavailable, we cancelled because the
overlap of interests from the remaining prospective participants did not
seem large enough to warrant a satisfactory meeting.  I'm trying to get
some a priori agreement for a new date (second half of September) where
at least one of Jan and Han-Wen would be available but have not been
successful soliciting a reply from them so far.

However, Jan Rosseel <URL:http://score.net> and Patrick Schmidt
<URL:http://philomelos.net> came around anyway and we had discussions
about their respective projects and business models, how LilyPond plays
into them, where they are trying to go, and what aspects of LilyPond can
be problematic for that.
