Thanks for all the info and support! I am happy there is interest in the program. In response to Urs' first reply, it seems as though lily <-> xml is the more GSoC-oriented project. I take it that the tie formatting project is too large? Does alternative involve implementing heuristics that Janek Worchol prepared? I'm comfortable in C, Java, and OCaml. I've done some course work in Python & Perl, and last summer I spent my time learning PHP, JavaScript, HTML/CSS for a web development job. I come from a math background and enjoy functional programming, so I am looking forward to learning Scheme over the next two months (and C++). As a music student I am particularly enthused about working on lily <-> xml, as I think I understand that this is necessary for Lilypond to be used in tandem with other notation software.
>From reading the discussion it seems as though using the Guile module for SXML->XML is the more practical solution. Though I'm not up to speed, so I can't really conclude the best approach. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Google-Summer-of-Code-2015-tp172600p172741.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
