Lilypond 2.8 is out!
Hurrah for the latest stable release of Lilypond, 2.8! It's available as source, of course, and there are binaries for Windows (apparently everything since 2000), FreeBSD, Mac OSX >= 10.3 and Linux (x86).
Lilypond is a GPL'd (that is, free [as in freedom] software) music typesetting program, and is the one that I have moved almost exlusively to.
