FWIW, in German there are two words "Notenwert" (note value) and "Dauer"
(duration). I don't want to get into this discussion, but could the term
"note value" help? It seems to exist in English
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Note_value).
note value = length of a note in visible note representatio

Hi Lukas,
once again, I am no expert on ancient notation. So I don't know whether the
length of the stems in your renaissance style are required to be exactly as long
as they are now. They roughly end in the middle of a staff space for notes on
this position and on a staff line for notes on a staf

I like your changes to the website. Especially the flatter gradient in the top
menu is more modern. I would even have preferred the removal of the background

If dinosaur means that they will die out as time passes, I don't agree.

Even while I am a bit sceptical whether the syntax for R should differ
from r, I see your point.
Rather than R14 for a 14 measure rest, I would suggest to keep the
syntax close to the one before: R*14 (This way I would almost be
convinced ;) )
Could the duration be optional this way, keeping the

Hi,
here is another (probably not so well thought) idea:
Issue: \noBeam is a quite long command if used heavily and for the
opposite feature [ and ] represent much more convenient solutions.
Possible solution: use X or ; (or any other reasonable token as a
\noBeam equivalent.

Dear developers,
how about integrating the chordmode into normal music syntax?
Reasoning: chords are music, too. And with <…> chords are already
possible in the music input. Many modifiers like duration, alteration,
etc. are also possible with chords. So they are similar in many ways.

Hi,
concerning bug #1594:
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1594
Could "s" be used as an empty figure instead of "_"? That would be
consistent with the usual mode where "s" an invisible space/rest. That
would free the "_" to be used for the common task to put something below it.

Dear Lilypond developers,
I joined this list to thank you all for your amazing work!
In 2002, I was searching for a free music typesetting program. From the
first moment, when I found Lilypond I liked how Lilypond cares about
beautiful scores and how well thought the basic syntax is. Since then
