LilyPond – Music notation for everyone: Sponsoring

## Sponsoring

### Bounties

In the past,

- some users have paid for new features
- some developers have added new features for hire

The LilyPond project does not organize such efforts; we neither endorse nor discourage such agreements. Any contracts between private individuals is the business of those individuals, not ours.

### Guidelines

Any user wanting to offer money in exchange for work should bear in mind the following points:

- LilyPond developers may advertise their services on the lilypond email lists from time to time.
- Any agreements between private individuals should include the normal precautions when conducting business: who pays, how much do they pay, with what method of payment, and upon what set of conditions. We suggest that any ambiguity or uncertainty in these questions should be resolved before any work begins.

### Validation
