That sounds fine to me.  Looks like there will be plenty to go around in this 
update.

[Mutopia-discuss] Blog post and upcoming fourth update effort

2014-12-13 Thread Paul Morris
Greetings friends of the Mutopia Project,

I’ve written a blog post for Scores of Beauty (http://lilypondblog.org/ 
http://lilypondblog.org/) on recent progress in the Mutopia Project.  I will 
publish it after the fourth update effort gets underway. (As soon as it is 
officially announced.  I see that Glen has started adding the issues to the 
tracker.)

I'm hoping that my blog post may inspire some new volunteers.  So for this 
fourth update effort, I’d like to request that current volunteers only sign up 
for a single work to update, at first.  That will give any new volunteers a 
range of options to choose from if they want to participate.  After a couple of 
weeks feel free to go ahead and sign up for more.[1]

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,
-Paul

[1] Although maybe it would be a good practice to only sign up for one work at 
a time?  Basically everyone would sign up for an additional work to update only 
after they have submitted a pull request for the previous one.  Thoughts?)___

 Good call.  I tried to edit the wiki page to add a description (including 
 LilyPond to be found by a search), but the wiki refused to let me edit it.  
 (It thought I was a bot.)  So I've emailed the description to them.  
 Hopefully they will add it.

Looks like they upgraded their wiki software and I was able to add a 
description so all's well.

[Mutopia-discuss] Mutopia announcements on the LilyPond blog

2014-07-05 Thread Paul Morris
Greetings Mutopia list,

I had an idea.  What if every month or two there was a short blog post on the 
LilyPond blog[1] that listed the works that had been added and updated on 
Mutopia site.  The LilyPond blog is always looking for posts and all the good 
work going into Mutopia could use some acknowledgement and publicity (which 
might also encourage more people to get involved).  (The Mutopia site lists new 
works, but not updated works...)  Such blog posts would also be a good way to 
announce engraving milestones/efforts.  

What do you think?

Cheers,
-Paul

[Mutopia-discuss] Clairnote sheet music library

2014-06-11 Thread Paul Morris
Greetings everyone,

Some of you may know about my work on Clairnote music notation (an alternative 
music notation system).[1]  

I just wanted to let you know about a sheet music library[2] that I've been 
working on that offers works from the Mutopia Project in Clairnote notation 
(converted via LilyPond/Scheme).  There's a blog post with more about it if you 
are curious.[3]  

I also wanted to say thank you to everyone who has contributed to the Mutopia 
Project and/or LilyPond.  This little library is very fortunate to be standing 
on the shoulders of these projects.  

If there is any interest in incorporating aspects of this library into the 
Mutopia site at some point (like MIDI playback, perhaps?), I'd be glad to help.

Many thanks,
-Paul

Re: [Mutopia-discuss] Clairnote sheet music library

2014-06-11 Thread Paul Morris
Hi Javier,

Thanks for the feedback.  I see what you mean about the attribution statement.  
It's a tricky balance between giving credit to the Mutopia Project and the 
original typesetter, while also not implying that these are Mutopia Project 
publications.  I'll give it some more thought and see what I can come up with.  
Any suggestions are welcome.

By the way, I really like your initiative to typeset the works that are 
downloaded the most from IMSLP that are not yet available in Mutopia.  It's 
great that they were willing to share their download numbers.  I'd like to help 
with that but my plate is already quite full for the foreseeable future.  Maybe 
at some point I will be able to find some time.

All my best,
-Paul

 Hi Paul,
 Kudos on the library.  There's a lot to like about its design.  Simplicity, 
 highlights each entry, filtering with auto-refresh, very intuitive and 
 functional.  The midi playback control on the sidebar is a nice compromise.
  
 On the attribution statement, I do find some wordsmithing still advisable, 
 especially the opening statement Sheet music from the Mutopia Project...   
 The license allows posting/transmitting/printing these independently, and 
 without the benefit of context your website provides, I fear this reads as if 
 these are a publication of the Mutopia Project, when publishing credit should 
 point to you without much ambiguity.
 
 Best Rgds, Javier
