I am simply writing to the list, having not participated in any direct editing underway, since it seems that people are heading for a summary of work to date. I hope that these items of special interest have been or can be included: ================= Group 1 Custom accidentals to include just intonation inflections; comma means here a syntonic comma, or comma of Didymus, approximately 22 cents. These should be different than quarter tone accidentals. Sharp with intonation lowered a comma Flat with intonation raised a comma Natural with intonation lowered a comma Natural with intonation raised a comma I have not found a sharp with intonation raised to be necessary, nor a flat with intonation lowered -- however, the proponents of what is called expressive intonation in string playing do use raised sharps and lowered flats by small intervals other than commas. ================= Group 2 Intonation markings to attach to and be placed over or under a notehead: raised comma, raised two commas, lowered comma, lowered two commas.
