I'm working on a GABC database/repository and need some help.

I've typed and uploaded hundreds of Chants, and am generating Psalm sheets
and Sunday Propers for use in the Liturgy and Breviary. They are available,
but not all are proofread. I need some proofreaders - I tried to proofread
them myself, but I'm generating more than I can keep up with at the moment,
there's too many Chants that need to be typeset. We would also appreciate
some help to help improve the database engine. We can use all the help we
can get. We are using Joomla! at the moment, though depending on what our
available options are, we are open to switching to Plone.

I've tried to do all this myself, but it's taking far too long, so I need to
delegate some of it. I simply can't keep delaying the process. I wanted to
first come up with something complete and presentable, but time is marching
on.

My aim is to make available all the Chants from the Liber and the Graduale
available individually and as booklets for each Mass/Hour. I'm working on
getting all the Chants from the 1961 Graduale (which, I believe, contains
all the Chants from the 1974 Graduale) and the Liber Usualis available. I'm
also generating booklets for Sundays and Feast Days - I've prepared scripts
that handle all that. I'll also develop scripts for Vespers etc from the
Liber.(I'm just hoping that copyright issues don't get in my way).

I also need people to fill out the header fields in the gabc files -
scripture references, occasions etc., need to be filled out. Some help with
booklets might come in handy. I have scripts to automate some of the booklet
work, though there's some that will need to be done manually.

The Psalm tones will also soon be available, though I'll need some help with
the text.

We can be found at www.caecilia-project.org. We also have mailing list there
for anyone who wants to join. I can also be contacted via the email address
on the attached image.


Come help - there's plenty to do.


Thank you very much in advance,

Andrew.
