 Hi,

 I am working on a GUI for LilyPond and am looking for your feedback on
 the desirability or usefulness --if any-- for MediaWiki.

 My desire is to have LilyPond accessible to everyone by presenting a
 basic GUI initially so as to provide a more gentle introduction than
 text to most people, simultaneously offering an easy way to learn the
 LilyPond language and handhold them while they make the switch.

 Although I started three years ago it is still mostly a play thing --I
 do this just for fun and it has seen a few rewrites-- so it will be a
 long way before it matches any of the power that LilyPond has, or even
 that other GUIs offer right now.

 I would enjoy having more focus and actual users and so early this
 spring I took up the idea to create a basic web frontend alongside the
 main Gnome/Gtk+ GUI.

 Then, by the usual blend of sheer coincidence and providence, the
 score extension landed.  That has kept me wondering if what I have
 now could [almost] be useful for MediaWiki or WikiPedia...or what
 would need to be done to make it so.

 Any feedback is much appreciated!  Please have a look at

http://lilypond.org/schikkers-list

 or go straight to the LilyPond Schikkers Demo

 Thankyou
 Greetings, Jan

 PS: as an aside, I read some complaints about Lily's SVG output on this
 list; would you please send a bug report on that, or anything else
 that you find amiss to bug-lilyp...@gnu.org?

Hi,
Thanks for reaching out to us.

I just tried the demo, and it looks pretty awesome. I definitely think
integrating this into Score somehow would be very desirable.

Sure.  I remembered reading something about this desire, but couldn't
find that discussion; I was redirected here through the Score Talk page.

Thank you.  Integrating would be nice, but that is possibly taking it a
bit too quickly?  Anyway, I am very interested in what would be desired
most and to see if we can come in contact with people who would like to
work on this.  I'll also hang out on #mediawiki (and #lilypond) as
janneke (or janneke_)

Greetings,
Jan
