> So - do you use noteedit? :)

yes, yes i do, although i am spending more time reediting more complex 
tasks in lilypond.. i echo the sentiments about this program being nice 
and would love to see development continue.. i know that there are bulky 
gui packages like rosegarden or muse around, but for someone that just 
needs to get ideas from paper to screen and back again on a crusty old pc, 
i'll take the faster/lighter option. i think choice is a great virtue of 
libre software, and i will always prefer using a wide range of softwares 
efficiently over an all-in-one-beast, but then perhaps i'm just too cash 
poor and time rich..

i respect the authors decision to cease production, but it would be great 
to see this project get back into full flight.. i really think there's a 
lot of room left in this tool for it to become something unique for 
composers of all descriptions to work with, it's not attempting to be a 
full fledged midi studio, just a lightweight graphical noteeditor that 
exports to a multitude of formats.. anyhow, it just requires a few 
developers with a bit of time, imagination and inclination to make 
something of it and take the load off the authors shoulders (subversion 
awaits!).. anyhow it's a great little tool and something we don't have 
enough of in linuxland, it would be unfortunate to see it become dormant 
and rusty.. okay.. end'o'rant..

cheers,

oh, and for the count i know a few others in this small town using 
noteedit for composition, who would have no desire to peruse LAU, 
represent!
