We spent the meeting discussing the microsyntax for time signatures, which needs replacing following the decision to avoid these as far as possible (see discussion #293). The next meeting will be in two weeks, on Thursday 3 August 2023.Ĭategory Minutes Co-chair meeting minutes: July 6, 2023 dots can be omitted if the value is 0.įollowing the conclusion reached in today’s meeting, Adrian will update the MNX specification and example documents to include these changes. After considering a number of different factors, we decided on the creation of a new duration key for the event object that will itself hold a new object with two key-value pairs: base will use a string-based enumeration, heavily based on the equivalent note-type value in MusicXML, to specify the notehead duration and dots will use an integer to represent the number of rhythm/augmentation dots on the note. The main topic of discussion in today’s meeting was the replacement of the note value microsyntax.

W3c/musicxml w3c/mnx w3c/smufl Group's public email, repo and wiki activity over time The group is proposing the development of an additional new specification to provide a standard, machine-readable source of musical instrument data. The group is developing a new specification to embody this broader set of use cases and technologies, under the working title of MNX. The goals are to evolve the specifications to handle a broader set of use cases and technologies, including use of music notation on the web, while maximizing the existing investment in implementations of the existing MusicXML and SMuFL specifications.

The Community Group documents, maintains and updates the MusicXML and SMuFL (Standard Music Font Layout) specifications. The group aims to serve a broad range of users engaging in music-related activities involving notation, and will document these use cases. The Music Notation Community Group develops and maintains format and language specifications for notated music used by web, desktop, and mobile applications.
