Laborejo Release 0.1 Announcement

[Nils]

Laborejo, Esperanto for "Workshop", is used to craft music through notation. 

It is a Lilypond GUI frontend, a MIDI creator and finally a tool collection to 
inspire and help you compose.
It works by reducing music-redundancy and by seperating layout and data. Don't 
worry about the layout, just concentrate on the music.

This is the first release, version number 0.1
Download: https://github.com/nilsgey/Laborejo/tarball/0.1
Dependencies: http://www.laborejo.org/documentation

There are too many features to mention them all and too many missing features 
and bugs to warn you. Most important known problems:
* This is Alpha Grade Software. Don't use for long-term work. However, the 
produced midis and PDFs will last forever.
* Performance can get bad very quickly if you use Containers.
* There is no built-in sophisticated midi player/jack midi output yet. You have 
to export midi files.
* Documentation is nearly non-existent.

Have fun, it would be nice to hear from you!
