I am researching the writing of a "simple" music notation program which

My first hurdle is how to display the music.

Cool, I've written a fairly simple music notation app called "Zap's abc" a few years back. You may already know that the abc notation has been around for a pretty long time so in fact, my exceedingly simple approach is actually to just provide a simple text editor and then bounce that text to my own server where it is transformed to either PDF or Midi which is displayed/played on the phone with the standard apps.

Perhaps not ideal for people who need it offline, but pretty simple once you get the hang of abc (the original target audience was folk music so it is pretty straight forward for simple stuff, but with a bit of effort you can create symphonies if you like).

This may not be what you need, but I though you might want to try it.
