In the early days of Usenet, we would reach a point where we Do Not Feed 
The Troll. It seems clear to me that the person posting as mclaren is 
unlikely to be part of a constructive and civilised discussion, given 
the tone of the posts I've seen, so I've added a filter to my email 
which simply deletes mclaren posts unread.

It may be useful to document LilyPond's problems with irrational 
numbers, probably as a Known Issue in NR 1.2.3, but, while irrational 
time signatures and tuplets may well be interesting, I doubt that 
mclaren's insistence is shared, and certainly not to the point of being 
an obsession.

Cheers,
Colin
