Hi Urs, > This might be another push for thinking about a MusicXML backend.
Yes. > Althought this may seem opposite of lobbying LilyPond No, to me this *is* part of "lobbying Lilypond": If we had a seamless MusicXML import/export process, users could (a) Choose to input in Finale/Sibelius (due to comfort level), then output in Lilypond. (b) Choose to input in Lilypond, then output in Finale/Sibelius (due to publisher's requirements, etc.) > it still may encourage people to use LilyPond.

I hereby reiterate my offers of bounty and/or XML and XSLT coding assistance for any MusicXML project/effort — while I can't write C++ (at all) or Scheme (almost at all), I can write XSLT stylesheets in my sleep.
