Yes. Harsh this may sound, but how much of the music on Mutopia
would you be satisfied to print out, and use yourself? From a quick
browse through various sections, I have to say that a large amount
of the music on there is fairly poorly engraved. My proposition is
for much more strict quality control... after all, nobody will pay
money for music unless it looks professional.
Oh yeah? And when did you last see a set of orchestral parts that
looked "professional"? Some of them are even photocopies of (badly)
handwritten manuscripts!
Isn't that why Han-Wen started writing Lilypond in the first place?
That said, anything to increase the profile of Open Software and
increase the quality of music publishing has to be good, so good luck
to you. I don't think existing publishers will agree with me though :)
