+  
+  Web: freshmeat, linux-sound, 
+  
+** translation project.
+
+** mutopia submissions
+
+
+* Book
+
+** Status and planning
+
+[L] The book still needs a lot of work, but it is not insurmountable.
+The pieces are there; they need to be re-ordered and integrated
+better.
+
+[L] There are still some rough patches - whole pages - that still need
+real work.  The general polished sections still have a large number of
+English errors.  Some errors collected together; whole sentences need
+to be completely rewritten.
+
+[L] This will take an active partnership between the editing staff and
+one or more authors.  It will take 2 months or more of a lot of time
+(~15hrs a week) on the part of the LilyPond maintainers, and then
+another couple of months of occasional follow-up emails as we do the
+fine-tooth comb English edits and get it ready for press.
+
+
+** Manual structure, fitting pieces together
+
+*** [L] SKIP: Regression Tests for Developers -- input/regression
+
+*** Templates -- input/templates/out-www/collated-files.tely
+[L] Appendix to the printed manual.
+
+*** Glossary -- Documentation/user/music-glossary.tely
+[L] Appendix to the printed manual.
+
+Get authors and license.
+
+*** Examples  -- input/examples 
+
+[L] These (or some of these) need to be integrated into the book.  To
+save space, each example should show just one page of music.
+
+[L] The best way is to add an illustrative example as it's own sub-section
+within the tutorial, after a section discussing a certain technique,
+music issue, or typesetting problem.  For instance, after a discussion
+of how to do multi-voice notation, put a half page or one page choral
+piece.
+
+[L] I think this extra time is well worth it.  It will add a *lot* of
+value to the book relative to the amount of work being done.  (A much
+better value/time ratio than the countless necesary-evil hours we
+spend doing "fine-tooth comb" English editing.)
+
+[L] Before you spend any time on it, you should post a request to your
+mailing list.
+
+
+*** Compile  -- Documentation/topdocs/INSTALL.texi
+
+[L] Normally, all our technical manuals include a section on How to
+Install.  Too terse and UNIX (problems) only.
+
+UNDECIDED: Possibly get info from newweb/site/download/,
+
+*** Program Reference  -- Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond-internals
+
+[L] Big problem.
+
+[L] I leave it up to you to decide which cross
+references really must be included and then add the information to the
+main text.  Any reference to internal commands that aren't included in
+the main text should be cut from the printed version.  We can make a
+note in the book that says "for complete information on every single
+internal command, see http://www....."
+
+Either add to manual in condensed form (we'll try that first), or
+remove all x-references.
+
+*** Tips and Tricks -- input/test/out-www/collated-files.tely
+
+[L] I worry that important updates and helpful advice are lost in
+here, instead of integrated into the manuscript.
+
+[L] It sounds like a lot of the material is already completed.  Can you
+convert the Templates file into a Texinfo-formatted appendix?
+
+Ask users.
+
+
+*** SKIP: why switch?  -- newweb/site/switch/advantages.html
+*** SKIP: feature list -- newweb/site/about/features.html
+
+[L] Useful source material for me when writing back-cover text, a sales
+sheet or ad, but not needing integration into the manual itself.
+
+*** SKIP: crash course -- newweb/site/switch/howto.html
+
+[L] Some part of this might be useful as back-cover text, to help quickly
+explain things while someone is standing in a bookstore, thinking
+about it.  However, it does not need to be integrated into the
+manual.
+
+*** SKIP: faq -- newweb/site/about/faq.html
+
+*** SKIP: essay -- newweb/site/about/automated-engraving/
+
+[L] The majority of the info in this essay has already been added to
+the manual.
+
+** Issues
+
+*** INSTALL.texi -- CD
+
+[L] After reading your notes about the compilation problems, I am even
+more committed to doing it as a book&CD.
+
+UNDECIDED: [L] I am not going to bother creating a ready-to-run live-CD.
+
+*** Graphical interfaces
+
+    	* NoteEdit
+    	* RoseGarden
