Interesting discussion. And, being primarily a user and not (really) a
developer, I hardly can wait to see where this will lead to. But I will be
patient.
The way I see it: The ideal case would be if a lilypond score that is
converted to musicXML and then imported to some other music

But even with shortcomings, MusicXML would make it easier to convert/import
Lilypond created scores to other programs. Post-editing may
still be needed, but will much less work than when using MIDI export/import.
I meant: will BE much less work

2. Finale's and Sibelius' MusicXML import isn't 100% perfect either. Yes,
when Finale exports a MusicXML file and then imports the same MusicXML file
the result will be quite good. But I would not be surprised if importing

That sounds encouraging. So how far away are we from being able to
handle a more realistic score, say a string quartet or a 4-part choral
score with with lyrics and piano reduction?
Quite far.

The issue with Finale and Sibelius exporting is user overrides. I can
drag a markup over the last note in my score to be in the position of
the title and it'll look just fine in Finale, but LilyPond will have no

If memory serves, so far we have US$200, C$100 and €200. If I were to
work alone on this bounty, that would allow me to allocate
approximately 20hrs, which should clearly be enough to write a nice
XML exporting in some schema mimicking Lilypond's

Hi all,
In short, the only way to make it extendable for the future (so
that one day we can also export the layout) is to handle (MusicXML) export
similar to MIDI generation, namely via translators that collect all events
and
all settings as they appear in the score.

Hi Carl,
Do you want
1) XML that captures only the music (and could be imported into some other
program which will make the layout decisions)?
No: this is trivial to obtain from #2 or #3, via XSLT.
2) XML that captures both the music and the layout (and could therefore be
printed by some

My question is this: In what format is the final, typeset music stream such

extracting the music and layout information?

You are using trivial like a mathematician, strictly interchangeable with

Actually, I was using trivial in two ways:
