Right. I wish you well but the amount of work involved may be more than
anyone can provide. I agree with you about Mutopia (it is still a valuable
resource for us amateurs) but the pursuit of perfection may be a step too
far. Possibly a University Department may have the resources but in today's
straightened times I doubt it.

Some on this list have the necessary skill but may not have the time. Many
of us old fogies have the time but not the skill required. However all power
to your elbow.

Mutopia?

Here's why, and it's for the same reason that -- while I immensely value
and respect IMSLP -- I don't think they go far enough in what they are
trying to do.
