Well, few years ago I've downloaded one or two files and, as far as I remember : a) None of'em were compilable. b) Copy/paste-ing the notes took me much more time than rewriting the whole score after a facsimile. c) Pdfs look bad (what's the purpose of such footers ??). I've just take a quick look at the Mutopia site. I'd like to add : a) it is written "The Mutopia Project offers sheet music editions of classical music for free download" ; which means that it is in direct competition with IMSLP. Does it make sense ? b) the composer's pages are not user-friendly ; why not using a wiki system ? c) a majority of (all ?) scores are coded "relatively" ; exept when coding for organ, piano, harp, etc. I never use \relative d) there is no coding convention; many Mutopia codes (e.g. http://www.mutopiaproject.org/ftp/BrownCJ/lullaby/lullaby.ly) give me headhaches. e) there are numbers of pretty old version (v2.4 for this one : http://www.mutopiaproject.org/ftp/CarcassiM/O60/carcassi-op60-01/carcassi-op60-01.ly ) f)...etc. (too long) I'd like to conclude that Mutopia site remains the same for years, no improvement, no discussion (except you, Federico). So, if nothing changes, I don't see any future for this site. Cheers, ~Pierre
