Re: Proposed CG agenda changes - could this be considered?

Lyric problems: The place for lyrics is not welldefined, concerning 
numbering.

Example: A song has three verses and a repeat section. Under each note 
there are
three lines of lyrics except in the repeat section, which has two lines 
with a rhyme.
Then you you guess that the two lines in the repeat section should be 
sung in all
three verses. But ...

When people I know send songs, the numbers for lyrics are very odd. E.g. 
8,9 or 4,6,11.

My proposal would be that verse and repeat numbers must be 1,2,3,4,5... 
(start from 1
with no holes) and the number for the lyric should be noted: a,b,c,... 
where
a=verse number, b=repeat number, c=inner repeat.
E.g. "<lyric number="3.2"> " means that the lyric text belongs to verse 
three, repeat two.

Another problem with lyrics is "New line". When extracting the lyrics, 
there are no CR´s.
But the real verse text has of cause CR´s

I hope that lyrics-numbering could be added to the existing lyric item 
on the list. Since the
solution is so simple.

Kind regards
Mogens
