> additional documentation (read: a chapter for the Guidelines plus several
> examples) and move it to the MEIncubator for review. The main motivation
> for setting up our own repo is that the proposed module should be
> absolutely generic, whereas our implementation for Beethoven will be
> specific, and it seems good to separate these things right away.

> that explains the textual development of a small section of Beethoven's
> op.111. This prototype is available at

> the near future, we plan to provide a full english localization at least of the
> tool (the contents may take more time). Also, we plan to consider the key
> signature when providing note labels in the interface ;-)
> > Our schedule is to clean the code so that others may step in or fork our
> code more easily, and we hope to put everything on Github in January. In
> the meantime, we're happy about feedback, either here on MEI-L or by
> personal message to me or someone else from the team. Please keep in
> mind, though, that this prototype is not the final result of our work, but the
> first trial.
