Hi,
I am very interested in becoming a `Code Janitor', as described on the call-for-help web page on the lilypond site. I have C++ experience gained mainly through my degree (mechanical engineering with computing BEng) and through a few personal projects since, and although I do not have python experience, I have experience of scripting languages, namely _vbscript_ for Excel and Asymptote for vector graphics, albeit for scientific applications. Also, (and perhaps most importantly!) I have been using Lilypond for several years and am a huge fan, and would like to contribute in some way (and I don't have any out-of-copyright music to transcribe for the Mutopia project!).
I think I would be very suitable for the position of Code Janitor as I am rather pedantic about errors
when it comes to writing (to wit: I often correct bad grammar on signs and adverts in the street or in shops, if I happen to have a pen handy!); even more so when writing code, so I feel I would be very good at standardising and cleaning up any code that requires it.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Faithfully,
Tim Wilkinson
