Now that musicxml2ly has been noticed as doing quite a good job, I'm thinking 
of adding a MusicXML backend to lilypond, so that we can also produce 
MusicXML and export lilypond scores to e.g. Finale, etc.

However, I don't see an easy entry point for such a backend. The normal 
backends (svg, pdf, tex, etc.) only output the graphical representation of 
the score as vector graphics, but for MusicXML I mainly need the score and 
the music, but I also need the page layout and the positioning of the noted, 
markups, etc.

Is there any easy entry point for this or is the architecture of lilypond not 
really suited for this?

Cheers,
Reinhold
