Hi.

Dave Pawson,

I work for www.rnib.org.uk hence specific interests
are accessibility of music for blind and partially sighted people.

Oasis has started an effort to standardise an XML interchange
standard. As part of that work we needed a glossary.

I came across glossay.eps in the musixTex download,
and have used that to produced an fdl HTML version. I hope the author
(not shown on that document) doesn't mind.

Its posted at http://www.dpawson.co.uk/smrf/gloss.html
If anyone wants the docbook XML version please ask.

I'd like to acknowledge the original author if he is known.
Source attributable to the original author,
all errors are mine. I'd appreciate feedback if you spot any errors.


I'm the author of this glossary, or rather, I took on me some years ago to completely rework the glossary which had been initiated by <I-don't-recollect-who> as part of the documentation for the GNU music typesetting utility, lilypond.


The late Daniel Taupin, author of the MusiXTeX macro collection, assisted me with some French musical terms and afterwards included a 'frozen' pdf version of the glossary in his MusiXTeX distribution.

The most recent glossary, written with lilypond tools, is linked to from the 'Links' section of the Icking Music Archive web pages, http://icking-music-archive.org/#lists. Due to my current tasks as editor of the Icking Music Archive I've had to let over the maintainance of the glossary to the Lilypond staff.

I see that your XML version contains several additions to the Lilypond glossary and hence strongly encourage you to contact the Lilypond staff for coordinating their and your efforts.

Best regards
