Co-chair Meeting Minutes: September 1, 2020 [via Music Notation Community Group]

MusicXML 4.0



Michael has completed issues #293 concerning virtual instrument changes and #308 concerning the design of inverted brackets. The next issue to be tackled will be #304, concerning a documentation change clarifying the use of invisible clefs.



Michael has added a new issue #330 concerning the expansion of the ranges of SMuFL accidentals that can be specified for MusicXML accidentals, which the co-chairs agreed should be part of the 4.0 scope.



Following that, the next issue to be tackled will be #278 concerning the handling of parts within the same document.



MNX



Mogens Lundholm opened issue #2 in the mnxconverter repository that Adrian has fixed. While he was working on the fix, Adrian created issue #193 for discussion concerning the nesting of tuplets and beams with the goal of getting feedback from other developers. If you are involved in the development of an application that could either create or consume MNX files, please do provide your feedback on this issue.



In the last co-chairs' meeting, we agreed that we would give issue #192 two weeks for community discussion before proceeding to remove the concept of profiles from MNX. In the absence of a clamour against the idea, the co-chairs have agreed to proceed, so Adrian will now create a pull request to enact this decision.



One of the issues raised in response to this issue concerns whether the group charter still accurately reflects the priorities of the community group, and the co-chairs agree that we should review the charter before the end of the year.



SMuFL



Michael has raised issue #133 concerning the duplication of assignments from SMuFL glyphs to glyphs in the Unicode range for musical symbols. Daniel has assigned this issue to the SMuFL 1.4 milestone.



Next meeting



The next meeting will be on Tuesday 15 September.
