You are here

I notice that the Hymnary FlexScores are generated with LilyPond. And I see that there are often MusicXML files available for download. Any possibility that you could provide the open source LilyPond files for download, as well?

Thank you, Dianne. If there is a change in policy, I'll be very interested to hear about it.
