I didn't know about Music Blocks, and so will (not) do many others. BTW There's a post in the pipeline introducing Abjad (http://abjad.mbrsi.org/), which does a similar thing extending Python. > 2) Would you be willing to publish articles created by High School > students participating in Google Code-in (GCI)?

You can prepare any number of such posts, and we can publish them in a convenient sequence. We don't have specific standards, and we can of course introduce the post appropriately, so if students simply do their best it will be good, I suppose. We usually do some peer review prior to publishing, especially (but not exlusively!) with new authors, and this can be an interative process. So yes, I'll definitely look forward to this! Just tell me you're at a point where I should create user accounts for you and the students.
