To clarify:
- I want somebody to ORGANIZE the examples. As in "look at the
current input/*.ly examples, look at the inspirational
headwords, look at mutopia, ask for offers of help on -user, look
at snippets, make them up himself, etc.". Or some combination
thereof.
- we only accept public domain or "free" copyleft licensed works.
If you have a great example that you engraved for a composer,
that's great, but don't ask the composer for special permission to
distribute that exerpt on this page. Either get permission to put
the entire .ly snippet under a "free" license (it doesn't need to
be the entire work; if you can get permission to put bars 55-59
under a "free" license, fine).
Or just make up an example that looks similar, but is different.
i.e. instead of 5:13 tuplets, use 5:15 tuplets. Instead of "cis8.
feses,,2 \grace { a''8 } d16 ~ d8 ~ d32", make a snippet that does
"geses,,2 \grace {a''8 } e8 ~ e4. aes2 "
Yes, I'm eminently capable of organizing this myself (even if I'm
not certain how to spell "eminently"). That's why I'm NOT doing
it myself; I have nothing to prove in doing this, and there's many
more tasks that I should be doing.
Cheers,
- Graham
