Re: Fwd: [tablatures] [Request/Bounty] Tablature bends

[Federico Bruni]

Can anyone please add this new offer to the tracker?

http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1196 

Also the offer from Rosea Grammostola is still missing, but I can't
remember how much it was... Rosea, could you remember us?

Thanks,
Federico
