[LUG] MusicXML and arthritic programming - a new approach.

 

I've found a rather nice site 
http://www.folkinfo.org/
and have volunteered to try and write a php app to convert abc to MusicXML - 
as its the only 'recognised' 'open' standard for western music I'm aware of.
As the programmers amongst you may be aware this will involve taking music 
down to its fundamental particles and in a state that would make it ideal for 
pattern matching/correlation etc for copyright analysis amongst other things.

This is all realtively straightforward but as one of my mantras is 'the better 
the foundations the higher the building can go' has anyone got any thoughts 
on this as better now than when I'm too far down the line to be bothered to 
refactor me fundamentals.
