[linux-audio-dev] Developing a music editor/sequencer

[Paul Davis]

If you have several years to dedicate to this, go right ahead and have
fun. Otherwise, I strongly and respectfully suggest you consider how
to at least start from where Rosegarden already is. You could also
help the Lilypond team on their work to create a GUI/WYSIWYG system
for their tool. Even then, given your goals, plan on years in the
saddle.
