Yes, that was why I called it an open question and not a proposal. If I really want this thing, I could simply start with it. But I'm sure more people would be happy with the result, and would be happy to cooperate. But first, it's up to Peter and Markus to decide if and how they would like to see this incorporated in their magnum opus. It's all very well if we all send in our Django/Fronimo/GuitarPro/Finale/Sibelius/pdf/jpg of the few first measures of some manuscript we happen to have on our shelves, but when they decide on acii tab or tiff-scan after all, it's giving them a lot of trouble. And everybody working on Saizenay at the same time is not very porductive either. An inventory of what's already out there (e.g. De Visée thematical index, Austrian lute mss index) What's the url of your Weiss-site, so we can have a look?
