Hello lilypond team,

as a student of Information Technology I want to help making lilypond 
even better. I have some experience with C++ and Make, the other 
languages of the project are a new experience for me. But I have no fear 
to learn some new. Furthermore using git and unix tools like grep, find, 
ect. is no problem for me. The last skill I want to mention is that my 
mother tongue is german. So please do not blame me if I make some errors 
writing in English. But if you find some and correct them I will try to 
make it better the next time. I can do some translation work too.

I am using lilypond for 2 years for rewriting songs for two chorals.

What I did before writing this:
1) Reading most of the contributor's Guide
2) Suscribe to this mailing list
2) Installing LilyDev
3) Compiling LilyDev
4) Beginning to understand the software architecture of LilyPond

It whould be cool if you could give me some tasks. I think I can spend 
2-3 hours weekly for this project.

Greetings,
Simon Nagl
