Hello everyone,

I've just put the finishing touches on a new release of the Sibelius to MEI Plugin. This is available for download on our GitHub Releases page:

https://github.com/music-encoding/sibmei/releases/tag/v1.3 <https://github.com/music-encoding/sibmei/releases/tag/v1.3>

To save you a click I'll highlight some of the big changes from v1.2:

Bug fixes:
	• The file encoding was improperly declared. It is now declared as UTF-16.
	• dis.place of 15 for clefs was improperly encoded.
	• transposing clefs are now computed properly from Sibelius.
	• ID references for fermatas were missing a starting '#'. 
New or Improved Features:
	• A full suite of articulations are now encoded.
	• Additional accidental types are now supported.
	• Bracketed accidentals are encoded as 'supplied'.
	• Square bracket symbols are now encoded as line objects.
	• Dotted longs are now supported.
	• Tuplets are now supported!
	• Support for bTrem tremoloed notes. 

To Install:

Visit the release page and download the attached binaries, unzip them, and place the folder in your Sibelius Plugins folder. (Instructions on how to do this are available on the Sibelius website: http://www.sibelius.com/download/plugins/index.html?help=install <http://www.sibelius.com/download/plugins/index.html?help=install>)

You can also check out the source code and place it in 'sibmei' folder in your plugins directory.
