Hi, The webpage it self should look more modern. IMSLP is a good example but even small changes could help a lot.

BY-SA-NC is not approved as a free cultural license: http://creativecommons.org/freeworks These arguments should be considered. But it is a valid choice and it could also be good to have that option.

Just Chris? I have no idea if people send contributions this way. > The last time (1 year ago) I sent an email to the suggested address, I did not get any reply. So I didn’t try again and thought Mutopia is just dead. I have some scores, that I could upload, I could also use them to test any new upload feature. > A modern web interface may attract more contributions? For several years now, I have sketches and ideas how that could work and look and I always wanted to learn enough web techniques to make a proposal which can be tested. But so far I still don’t have the capabilities to do it. The last discussion I started about Mutopia ended without changing the website. If there is a chance that things really end up on the website, I would search for the notes I have taken back then and contribute to the discussion (but unfortunately not to realize it, see above). Updating the current version would also improve it. I could take care of updating some scores.
