LilyPond, a music engraving program devoted to producing the highest-quality sheet music possible by featuring the aesthetics of traditionally engraved music to computer printouts, is now at version 2.17.10.

LilyPond 2.17.10 may be an unstable version, but it's still an important release as it brings a lot of updates and changes.

Highlights of LilyPond 2.17.10:

• Draw-dashed/dotted line commands have been added to changes; • Expand TremoloEvent to repeated notes, in the unfolding stage of articulation; • Makes all side-positioning based on skylines instead of boxes; • Show ligature bracket extenders by setting bracket-visibility to ##t;

Check out the complete changelog for a full list of modifications.
