Well, I think I've found a compromise. On one hand, I agree with you that a single resources page exclusively for Lilyponders is much more convenient. On the other hand, I suppose Han-Wen was afraid (and he has certainly reasons for that :-)) that it was a mess in the site building scripts after I'd have added my scripts, just for one more little resources page. In fact, I don't need to include the scripts for the resources page in the official CVS site source: I can just run the scripts myself and then give you the result. You (i.e. the webmaster, the translators,...) just needn't know the machinery I use to build and maintain this page. So, let's do that: Han-Wen, I'll send you the new files and the patch for modified files that you'll apply to a cvs copy of the site source, then you'll be able to see the final result with 'make'ing it (unless you prefer that I send you a *ugh* 4 MB tarball). -- John Mandereau <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
