Right now the README say:
The pixmaps used to display music is generated from the feta font
used by GNU Lilypond, copyright Han-Wen Nienhuys, Jan Nieuwenhuizen
and others. Toolbar icons and rpm is by Oliver Vollmer.
I can mention www.lilypond.org and tell how nice typesetting software
Lilypond in README and online doco.
One question, IF you did not say it is ok, what would be necessary to
follow the GPL? Could I put a version of Lilypond on my ftp site and
say in the readme for Solfege that to recreate the feta pixmaps,
"download
lilypond from ftp://..., in mf/ make xpms, copy needed pixmaps to
solfege-x.y.z/feta"? This is how I did it to make the pixmaps I use now.
