All,

Thanks for the various messages during today.

As has become rather obvious, Mutopia activity has been almost 
non-existant for the last few months and the time has come for me to 
hand over leadership to someone new with the energy and enthusiasm to 
take the project forward.

I have been leading the project since 1999 but unfortunately no longer 
have the time to put in the hours required to bring the site up to 
modern standards and co-ordinate the addition and updating of contributions.

We attempted to set up a new system for handling contributions around a 
year ago but unfortunately that wasn't completed for various reasons.

I do not want to see Mutopia die due to lack of interest on my part, and 
am willing to work for several months with a new team to get things 
going again. However someone needs to volunteer to co-ordinate that team.

New contributions will not be added until such a new team is in place, 
although I will try to continue to process updates to existing 
contributions where possible.

Thanks to all who have supported Mutopia since 1999 and if you are 
interested in co-ordinating the project from now onwards please contact 
me by e-mail. If you want to see how things work at present, the source 
code for the website, scripts and all LilyPond files can be found in 
github. Of course I will give admin rights to the new co-ordinator so 
the project can be taken forward.

I still believe Mutopia is unique in offering "open source" sheet music 
that can be edited, transposed, arranged, etc. all using free software. 
I really hope that a new team can be found to continue the work.

Best regards,

Chris
