Dear Urs, dear Friends

In general, I've started the adoption of LSR snippet 967 in a
development branch of my harmonyli lib (
https://github.com/kreincke/harmonyli/tree/develop). This snippet isvery well 
designed and written.

Does anyone has his mail address? I would like to discuss / learn, how
his function fExtend works. Or does anyone know, how this methods
works?

The analysis package is a challenge for me:

a) It is licensed under GPL. I think this is not appropriate for music.
In a few days I will write a little article about this topic. But
without changing that license I cannot contribute to it.

b) I did not find an example, which can be downloaded and be compiled
without additional 'installation steps'. And unfortunately, also the
home page of openlilylib is forthe moment more a frame than an
information source. Where can I get such a tutorial?

I think we won't need much time to modify the one source file into a
lib.

Do you have any other needs I should consider?
