Today marks the completion of phase 1 of the Donald MacDonald project. For those of you new to following this project which often sees many months without a public update, phase 1 is the re-engraving of the original versions of the tunes into lilypond. Today phase 1 is complete. I am attending a conference. A saxophone conference to be exact. There is a snowstorm. I elected to stay in town instead of leaving the conference early to drive back north to Boston. After returning to my hotel room this evening, I logged into my dropbox, looked at my Donald MacDonald folder and realized I was three tunes short of competing this phase of the project. Now there is much editing to do. While I fixed some lilypond output of certain embellishments, I got a new computer and lost my edited version of bagpipe.ly . That will have to be re-created and the files re-compiled. Following that, I will need to edit for mistakes and/or general layout issues. Lilypond does a great job of auto-formatting
