If you know of something in the web that can be taken as an example (I just
found out a web-based LaTeX project http://code.google.com/p/latex-lab/ but
still under development) could you give me the link?
Thanks

P.S. A very simple author/version control could be enough for 99% of needs
if other 2 points are available in some way.

Well using commercial source control systems for handling lilypond
projects seems quite odd. A wiki has many advantages to simple version
control, though you could write a client that supports preview, multiple
editions etc. But that would be a lot easier on a wiki platform.

Hello all, just some difficoult (but not stupid, I hope) questions.
I talked about LilyPond in a conference on music edition and
critical editions.  With my surprise, some musicologists (some of
which don't even use Finale!)  asked me if LilyPond could be used
in bigger critical editions projects (e.g., an opera) where
multiple editors are involved. These editors would be:

1- the copyst who does the big "physical" job of writing down the
code 2- the main critical editor 3- some expert revisor 4- the
final editor who cares about layout (and don't forget at point 0- :
the orginal author!)
        

I'd prefer to use a source code control system for this kind of
collaboration.  Because LilyPond is text based, things like Mercurial,
Perforce, etc., work really well to allow collaborative work, and to
track who did what.
