And, to make it relevant to this group, you'll have to start a sub-project to control the length and pitch of each syllable, so you can write a program that takes abc files with words and sings them in any of the available voices.
(For those who wonder what I'm talking about, FreeTTS is an project that's producing an open-source text-to-speech package, all written in java.)
Myriad, the people who make Melody/Harmony assistant are working on a browser plugin which displays, plays and even sings MusicXML. There's a mock-up demo of it here: <http://www.myriad-online.com/misc/forum/testmusicxml/> (You'll have to download the plugin, but it seems fairly automatic.)
Since they already have code to import abc, I wonder if they'll be making this capable of handling our format?
