[mei-neumes-ig] Minutes of Meeting: Tübingen, 19 November

[Prof. Dr. Morent]

Dear all,

as discussed in Tübingen and proposed by Thomas Weber in his last  
message I would find it a good idea to run some test cases of various  
neumed repertories, to see how the transformed MEI-neumes-module as we  
have it in mind would fit their needs.

I could provide examples from the TüBingen-project, Hildegard songs  
already encoded in the "old" MEI neumes-module (German neumes on lines).

best
Stefan
