Great suggestions, from you and all other contributors!
I wish I could help a little more directly, but I'm in the middle of
a few very busy weeks. I would like to be involved in some way next
year.
Well, we need all posters approximately one week before the conference
starts so that they can be plotted in time. In other words, we need
something until Jan 9th, which gives us more than a month.
I think that using lyluatex might be a good option. The main
question, however, is which poster class we should use. Some ideas
can be found at
https://www.latextemplates.com/cat/conference-posters ;
another possibility could be
http://www.brian-amberg.de/uni/poster .
Urs, could you set up a git repository for a LilyPond poster?
I'm right now doing this initially.
I can set up a document class based on a template and check that
lyluatex works.
I went for this template
https://www.latextemplates.com/template/a0poster-landscape-poster
because I think if the content is about a visual thing the medium should
be not be a distraction. Also, it gives us plenty of room to organize
content, and I think the header section is pretty practical for our
purposes.
Right now I'm claiming the right to decide by means of being the one who
*does* it, but that doesn't mean it is carved in stone. However,
stripping the content from these sample templates does require some
work, so we shouldn't to that too often.
Whoever wants to participate may either open a pull request or email me
personally their Github user names.
One thing to state in advance: In this case not only the printed poster
is part of the exhibition but also the code repository, so the code
should be exemplary.
Best
Urs
