Starting by tagging the existing snippets sounds fine to me.

Ok, sure.

Something to consider: since you are planning on writing a script to walk
through the library and give some output about what files have what tags, it
might make sense to go ahead and start that and then you'd have it as a tool
to help with the process of editing the tags.


Hm, I think I _must not_ start with such a script right now, since I 
know that this - although being not too complex - will eat up too much 
of my time and concentration.


But your message triggered a little bit of thought, and I came to the 
conclusion that we should use a website (i.e. openlilylib.org) for the 
documentation.
The script will have two stages: parsing the content of the library and 
generating documentation from the resulting internal representation. I 
think generating complete HTML pages isn't more complicated than 
generating Markdown, but the results are better to use: We have more 
control over the layout and formatting options than on a Github Wiki, 
_and_ we have a self-contained HTML site that can also be deployed locally.



For example, it would be nice
to know what tags have already been entered for all of the files (which is
how their authors were tagging them).


This raises yet another questions: the relation between pre-selected and 
free-form tags. Maybe a good compromise would be to have a (new) field 
"snippet-category" where only a number of predefined entries are valid 
(and if someone wants to add a category this should be discussed) and 
the existing field "tags" where free-form tags can be used. For this it 
would make sense to have a list with all used tags available and 
encourage authors to reuse existing tags rather than adding new ones 
(particularly it doesn't make sense to have singular and plural forms of 
the same tags).




(I guess this might mean moving the files first and then working on the
tags?)


Yes, that would mean that.
Maybe we can have a compromise. A script parsing the content of the tags 
field from all files shouldn't be hard to write. So we could:

- agree upon an initial set of categories
- agree upon a naming convention for tags
  (e.g. the same dashed-lowercase-scheme as for filenames).
- reconsider the metadata structure
  (which fields are mandatory, which optional, default values?)
- move all files in one go
  (that is: one commit for each snippet, as the files are not only 
moved but also renamed)

- clean up and tag the snippets. One by one and using pull request.
  (I think this should be done _with_ review and not be left to
  the authors' discretion)

Hi Urs and all,

I followed the discussion only roughly, but I think it is a step in the
right direction. I'd like to bring up the scheme-modules, I came up
with. They need a fixed folder-structure and need to be updated
according to the path they are stored in.
Should we have a dedicated folder for scheme-modules or shall we store
them for example in "includes"?

The module naming will change inherently and that will affect some
snippets. But that should be easy to identify as I seem to be the only
one doing such nasty stuff ;)

That's fine. Shall I prepare the scheme stuff? I would propose a root
folder like suggested in the include files folder

I might put snippets originating from lalily - templating,
edition-engraver and such - into a folder 'lalily'. In fact, I might
reconstruct the whole lalily-complex in that folder and probably make it
more convenient to use only parts or the whole workflow.

OK, then you can move the files to /includes/scheme-modules.
Just keep in mind: Create a new branch from the head of `reorganization` 
and open a pull request, but not against `master` (which will be 
presented by default) but against `reorganization`.

I would be fine with having /library/lalily next to /library/oll, but

It's been almost two years since the Waltrop 2012 LilyPond Meeting, in
which i had the pleasure to participate.  What about organizing
another meeting this year?

- who'd be interested?
- where? (David, are you interested in being the host again?)
- when? (i suggest 15-17 August)

If the meeting will take place within 1500 km from Warsaw (e.g. at
Waltrop) and there will be at least 4 other participants, count me in
:)

Is your idea that the snippet-category would be restricted to a single
category per snippet and would be used for a "table of contents" in the
documentation?  While the tags would be used for an "index"?  With the table
of contents / categories being more standardized and predefined than the
index / tags?

A question this raises: Will categories also appear in tags field?  Or
rather, will categories be included as entries in the index?  Basically, can
I look in the index for the categories as well as the tags?  (If not then
the index is not as helpful because the primary topics that snippets fall
under is not in the index.)  

So I think it makes sense for the categories to also appear in the index.

Another way to do this would be to have only a tags field and have the first
tag entered in that field be the "primary tag" which is used for the table
of contents.  It would need to come from a predefined set of tags.  I'm not
sure if that's better or not.

The Waltroper Parkfest http://www.waltroper-parkfest.de> runs from
August 29th to August 31st.  It is an excellent diversion for
accompanying guests and participants, though no participants actually
were inclined to go there in 2012.  For German-speaking participants,
let me quote

Das Waltroper Parkfest findet 2014 an den letzten drei Augusttagen
statt. Highlights des Ostvest-Kulturspektakels auf vier Bühnen sind
Auftritte von Juli, Hennes Bender, Brings und Too Strong, sowie eine
gemeinsame Show der NDW-Stars Markus, Geier Sturzflug, Hubert Kah
und Fräulein Menke.

Putting the meeting in parallel with the Parkfest in a similar manner as
last time would place it on August 28th to September 2nd, with the start
and end days mostly being for arrival and departure.  The disadvantage
is that the availability of external accommodation may be strained
during the Parkfest so one should book soon enough if that is desired.
Camping on our premises is possible, and we can accommodate a number of
people in the house, particularly if they have sleeping bags of their
own.

> Apart from that I have an idea about a beautiful and appropriate
> location in Stuttgart I could ask for.

I don't know about "appropriate" but the surroundings here _are_ rather
scenic.  Judging from the last meeting, nobody can bother with going
outside anyway as long as the Internet is up.  And we've more than
doubled our bandwidth as compared to last time when it was at 1Mbps.

This year's bird sightings on the premises include cuckoos, great tits,
white wagtails, green woodpeckers, black redstarts, barn swallows,
spotted flycatchers, magpies, yellowhammers, buzzards and a number of
others.

If there is sufficient interest, I'd be quite willing to host another
meeting.  Waltrop is north of Dortmund in the Ruhr area.

I'd prefer a clear separation in two fields. Makes clearer that we have two 
things. And makes the idea of using only valid categories easier to digest.

which i had the pleasure to participate.  What about organizing
another meeting this year?

- who'd be interested?
- where? (David, are you interested in being the host again?)
- when? (i suggest 15-17 August)

If the meeting will take place within 1500 km from Warsaw (e.g. at
Waltrop) and there will be at least 4 other participants, count me

That woukd make it considerably more likely for me. I even know that I could 
"park" my kids in that period.

I'm not going to push my sugestion (as I don't even know if it would actually 
be available). It was meant as a response to Janek's question *if* you'd be 
ready.

Count me in, too.
Depends on the exact dates, though.
