I've been following the development and growing maturity of MuseScore for years. This is a big milestone. In the past years, we've seen a weakening and decline of the leading proprietary programs in this space, with Finale (

) and Sibelius (

) suffering from lack of investment, reorganisation, and a growing aversion to vendor lock-in (
http://blog.adamspiers.org/2013/02/25/music-industry-learns-...
). In that context, it's a huge win for libre software to have MuseScore running strong, with the best release ever, and other recent milestones like the completion of the Open Well-Tempered Clavier project.
