Debussy's Arabesque is one of the `liberated' scores, I think...  for
the other ones, in my experience, since a month or two you
have to pay now 7 euros/month

I misunderstood your posting and tested downloading the Debussy score 
from IMSLP withour being logged in.




I experimented an openscore download.



I did this a few minutes ago. And yes, I'm asked to sign in to Openscore 
in order to download the score. I'm using Musescore now and then and 
signed up for an account long ago. After my login the download of the 
Debussy score started. I don't encounter any request for paid membership.

All IMSLP scores incl. those originating from the former WIMA score 
project, are published under a Creative Commons license and are 
downloadable free of charge. You may, however, sign up with a paid for 
membership giving you some benefits: you don't need to wait a small 
number of seconds for downloading recent IMSLP contributions, and you 
are allowed to stream commercial recordings associated with an IMSLP 
work page. But please notice that you do NOT pay for any IMSLP score.


The IMSLP membership was introduced some years ago with the aim of 
funding the operating costs of IMSLP. I had WIMA merge with IMSLP in 
2012 after years of unsuccessful attempts to establish a cooperative 
WIMA staff. If that had been successful we'd most likely have met a 
similar need for funding assistance. The WIMA server is still alive, 
hosting the MusiXTeX software. The server is only kept alive because the 
costs are sponsored by a Danish cultural organisation.

I did a quick check: they did a kickstarter campaign years ago, but the
form to register seems to be unavailable.
The project seems to be in the "all-in" IMSLP philosophy, alias a whole
range of scores with editions made in any way (in terms of editorial
criteria) but free. Which is the wrong message (which sources are you
relying on? Are you just making a free transcription of a copyrighted
edition? What is text and what is editor choice? etc).
In this case the idea seems to be "let's supply an editable version so you
don't have to spend time in preparing your own edition if you need
parts-transposition-whatever" that adds, anyway, an additional passage
between the edition and the user.
If this were an "amateurs for amateurs" thing it may work just fine,
however - since I keep on meeting people that in concerts/recordings/study
- use as a reference any kind of "edition" as long as it is free (and I
won't name the tons of "self-called-baroque-specialists" who will use "the
manuscript", i.e. any kind of handwritten stuff - handwritten by who? when?
for which purpose? - found anywhere), I still look with some suspicion this
approach which could just add garbage.

I remember being part of this world from before Werner Icking died, and
even having published some scholarly editions, I have transcribed hours and
hours of music for personal study and for performances, however, I've
always felt the doubt that the transcription made could be of any worth for
anybody else (and even when people write me for the scores used in my
records I provide them for free but always fearing that something might be
wrong).

 I have always seen much respect to the web from the members of this
community, and therefore this idea of "please upload as much stuff as you
can", maybe I'm old, but it leaves me a bit puzzled.
