Music Notation Community Group created

The Music Notation Community Group has been launched:
  http://www.w3.org/community/music-notation/

--------------------------------------------------

 The Music Notation Community Group develops and maintains format and
language specifications for notated music used by web, desktop, and
mobile applications. The group aims to serve a broad range of users
engaging in music-related activities involving notation, and will
document these use cases. 
 The initial task of the Community Group is to maintain and update the
MusicXML and SMuFL (Standard Music Font Layout) specifications. The
goals are to evolve the specifications to handle new use cases and
technologies, including greater use of music notation on the web, while
maximizing the existing investment in implementations of the existing
MusicXML 3.0 and SMuFL specifications.
