I use the part combiner in every project I do. Improvements to it in the 
2.19 versions have been remarkable. I still have occasional struggles 
with it, though. Like this SSATTBB choral piece 
https://youtu.be/N5PWE_uHkR4 ending with different durations and lyrics 
in each voice.

As far as helping with such a project, my experience with LilyPond 
amounts to only a year or so. The various Davids around here have 
probably forgotten more about it than I will ever learn. I can code a 
little, but I'm a spreadsheets-and-databases sort of person. Code 
related to drawing and graphics I'd probably struggle to fathom. Plus, 
my native coding language is Microsoft Office Visual Basic for 
Applications, and some C++. I know nothing at all about Scheme-family 
languages, other than that someday they will deplete the world's supply 
of parentheses. :) Perhaps a position like "documentation janitor" is 
something I could aspire to.
