Le� el c�digo aprovado (pero a�n no liberado), pero existe una deficiencia
(a mi parecer) y sin menospreciar el excelente trabajo de Perry Roland:
-Hablando espec�ficamente de las notas; se enfoca a representar gr�ficamente
una partitura, sin embargo no le est� dando un significado a la posici�n que
ocupa cada nota dentro del pentagrama, es decir, una negra en "Fa" no es lo
mismo que en "La". Pensando un poco en como mejorarlo es asignar caracteres
de posici�n (tal como se hace con �ndices y sub�ndices) para que conformen
una sola representaci�n gr�fica, pero con significado (de acuerdo a la
posici�n en el pentagrama).

�Para qu� mejorarlo?: Poder almacenar m�sica (y no s�mbolos) de forma
compacta en medios electr�nicos, luego los reproductores electr�nicos
"hablar�n" lo que se escribi� en lenguaje musical (del mismo modo que ya
existe software que habla lo que est� escrito en cierto idioma)
Gracias por su tiempo y atenci�n,
Erik Garr�s

I read the code approved (but not released yet), but exists a deficiency
(from my point of view) and giving to Perry Roland all my admiration for the
excellent work:
-Talking strictly about the notes; the convention approved is focusing to
"draw" music, but it is not giving it a meaning to the position where each
note is, what I try to say is, a NATURAL on "Fa" has NOT the same value
(meaning) on "La". Thinking a little bit how to improve it, is asigning
caracters for position (similar to superscripts and subscripts) in order to
have a unique graphic representation, but with meaning (determined by the
position on the block).

Why the improvement?: To be able to store music (not symbols) in a condensed
format into electronic media, so the players will "talk" what is written in
"muscial language" (like some software do speaking phrases in some
languages).
Thanks for your time and attention,
Erik Garr�s
