Hi aewanko, that's ok: I've replied to you in the other thread as to what you can do for now. I'll explain here what the status of the NMA project is: It's a bit of a slow project for the simple reason that as it stands, you can get any of the works in the New Mozart Edition for free personal use. T...

Hi aewanko, brilliant! If you visit the project page, just put your moniker (i.e. IMSLP username) against several of the volumes. I don't think Matthieu or I have looked at Series IX yet; there is simply too much in Series II that is occupying me at present. I've been having numerous technical probl...

My 2¢: Put everything related to Alfonso und Estrella under D 732, even if there are secondary Deutsch numbers such as D 759a. I agree with Lyle for what it's worth. The Lizst pages are abominable for this sort of thing. The sensible approach where essentially the ONE piece has several distinct vers...

Hi David, That sounds like a brilliant idea, and a wiki is just as good as anything for collecting this sort of information, and I quite agree the percussion is usually the most diverse and tricky for making these sorts of determinations. * Yes, one page for instrument/family, and use the associated...

Hi Yagan, just interested how you determined calling barn_elms an "idiot" was a blatant ad hom. , but "gutless wonder" and "coward" were not so? I thought all three descriptions were indicative of that, and could all be taken as ad hom. attacks, just being a question of...

Okay. I'll take the rap for going "off-topic" on the matter of Proposition 8 in California, in the context of a thread dedicated to the US Election, with perhaps marginal musical relevance (i.e., yet another nauseating YouTube of Sarah Palin). User barn_elms, whoever you are, you're a gutl...

Homer, it hasn't appeared on the works page, though, and it's not in the file uploads list either. Are you sure you've clicked the "ok" page for large file uploads? PML Edit: Ouch! At 57 megabytes it might be better split into the 4 acts... Acts 3 and 4 are the shortest, but it might as we...

Here's my wish-list: 1. A template designed for "non-hosted" composers. Black-edged, with a large hazard symbol to say: DON'T UPLOAD! I would have attempted this myself, except I couldn’t see exactly from where the existing template gets pulled in on the Category pages, and it just doesn’t...

Hi KCL, Without an open source music OCR package, your best option is still to make PDFs of rare Chinese full scores, and allow end-users to typeset parts etc. as needed/on demand/on request. Collating the derivatives from a full score is generally a much lengthier and demanding task if you are wish...

Dear Nikolas, The files are now inaccessible to everyone apart from the IMSLP copyright review team (the membership of which is extremely limited, and who are not in the business of intentionally breaking the law). If you wish, make new versions of your PDFs with watermarks/copyright notices to your...

I think the guy you mean is username jujimufu, with an impossibly-conjugated double-hyphenated first name and surname. Something virtually impossible for the non-Hellenes among us to consistently spell, like, Nicalaos-Laonicos Psalmicas-Chalcodonicis (I am typing this from memory!) If you want, I ca...

Hi KCLeung,

Once again, I point you to: viewtopic.php?p=7874

In short: no way, José.
