Re: Fwd: German Notation documentation out of date and buggy example code

[c . buhtz]

Dear Jean,

I am to new to Lilypond and can not decide if and how much the German 
version is outdated or not. But beside this the main problem is that the 
docu has bugs because the examples producing errors.

But I do not want to argue here because it is not my project. I just 
tried to improve the project with givin my point of view as a user. The 
docu does not help a new user if she/he is not able to simply copy and 
paste the code to play around and becoming warm with the Lilypond 
syntax.

Just my opinion.

Kind
