Thank you so much Han-Wen for implementing this sponsored feature (chords in which some but not all notes are tied) and especially for being able to use Werner's clear and easy idea for notating a partially-tied chord. If you work on the issue where in dotted chords that contain an interval of a second, the dots can be too close to a following chord, discussed in the following thread-- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2006-08/msg00342.html please send the invoice to me and I'll pay for it promptly via PayPal. I'm also interested in sponsoring (preferably with one or more other interested people) work on cross-staff chords as has been discussed on this thread-- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2006-08/msg00379.html I believe that at this point Trevor Baca and I are both willing to co-sponsor it. (Right, Trevor?) Does anyone else wish to help sponsor cross-staff chords, which is an important feature but also a considerable project in terms of Han-Wen's time and attention.
