Co-chair meeting: October 12, 2021

MNX Community Group meeting, October 28, 2021

We are in touch with the organisers of the W3C TPAC conference concerning how best to circulate the details of the meeting, and as soon as this is decided we will post the details here on the community group’s blog, and somewhere on the TPAC site and programme.

The co-chairs invite community group members to propose further agenda items that they would like to be added to the meeting by sending their suggestions via the public-music-notation CG mailing list. There is still time to propose an agenda item, but please do so by Friday 15 October 2021.

MNX

There was a good discussion on pull request #245 (for issue #57) concerning the proposals for system layout, with excellent suggestions from several community members. The proposal has been tweaked to take these suggestions into account, and the pull request is now ready to merge, subject to any last-minute feedback from the community.

Christina Noel also made a proposal for how arpeggios should be encoded in MNX (issue #118), and the co-chairs discussed Adrian’s proposal based on the MEI arpeg element, so Adrian will follow up with a modified proposal shortly.

Adrian plans to create issues to fill out the V1 Milestone so that we can estimate the total work remaining to bring the MNX specification to version 1.0. We plan to talk about the version 1.0 milestone as part of the forthcoming Community Group meeting at TPAC 2021.

Next meeting

The next co-chairs’ meeting will be in two weeks time on Tuesday 26 October 2021.
