?!?

hmm, ok, I read into this a desire for some abstracted form of notation in the 
file, and on screen or in print a 'presentation' of that.  I agree in 
principle, 
but I disagree that the proper abstraction is the 'absolute note' (whatever 
that 
is).  It shouldnt be midi pitch, I contend that the most natural thing to 
record 
is fret position, course number, and flag duration (if a flag is given).

Tablature records where one puts the fingers on the instrument.  Tuning and 
intonation is implicit.  Pace and note duration is left to the performers 
discretion.
