The latest draft for the revision of the headings to NR 2 is attached.
There are relatively few changes since Draft 7, and these are all at the end
of the Ancient notation section, so this is (hopefully) the final draft, as
I shall close off discussion at the end of today (Wed 9 Apr).
I decided to resolve the discussion re Editorial markings in the new
Transcribing ancient music subsection of Ancient notation as follows:
* I've left in Annotational accidentals. This will contain essentially what
was Musica ficta accidentals. This seems to be agreed.
* Ligature brackets I've returned whence it came. As there is no agreement
over whether these are editorial or not I decided to leave things as they
were, on the grounds this is easiest and that was the original author's
view.
* Baroque rhythmic notation is left in, in the expectation that Till will
find suitable LilyPond examples.
There will be opportunities for further discussion after the organisational
changes have been made and text has been reassigned. For now the discussion
on Ancient notation is Closed, with thanks again to Karl and Till.
