MuseScore & Rosegarden are probably the most mature score editors, at
least the ones I've tried. MuseScore is more in spirit to Sibelius and
Finale, whereas Rosegarden can be used as a DAW with JACK, and
supports LADSPA & DSSI plugins, although does not yet support LV2.
Nothing beats Lilypond, though. I use it for all of my composing, not
just for printing.
