yes, and there is enven a Dna2Abc on sourceforge ! 
http://dna2abc.sourceforge.net/ (and it doesn't seems to be a joke
for Chris Walshaw's Abc international)

great idea ! I've searched the web for a long time to find if
there was an equivalence to abc for dance notation, but only for
folk because I learn many fine dances and I'd like to archive them
in a conveniant way.

Do you know Don Herbison-Evans' projects ? He has made some (free)
softwares that can do this, using the Labanotation dance system as
basis.

http://www-staff.mcs.uts.edu.au/~don/pubs/nudes.html  (and there
is also the program called "Led")

Unfortunately, I don't find the labanotation suits well folk
dances, maybe it's a bit complex for this type of music. The
Feuillet notation is not better for this purpose. I'd really like
to find a system for dance which would be as simple as the abc for
music.

Any suggestion ? Or would your future work suits this need, Jeff ?
