Which doesn't answer my question, since it's still unclear!
Is Gaug11 meant to be (Gaug)11 (G B D# F A C) or G(aug11) (G B D F A C#)?
*grin* And if we go back to G+11, it's perfectly understandable to
interpret G+11 as Gadd11, i.e G B D C. (Gotta watch these jazzers,
they get wierd...)
It's all very well pointing at one FAQ that defines it one way, but
it's not the only FAQ or the only interprotation.
