This is fantastic!!  Two questions:

1. Please can you make the source code available as a git repository,
   so that everyone can collaborate on development?

2. I have a video of myself performing some music for which I have a
   Lilypond transcription.  I would like to edit this video so that it
   also contains a moving music staff similar to this one:

     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YC5mfm2C-ZI

   Can you suggest the easiest way to achieve this?  If that's
   difficult, then it would be good enough to have the vertical line
   scroll rather than the staff, or even have no vertical line at all.
   But either way, I really want to have the bottom half of the video
   frame showing a dynamically updating "window" into an endless
   one-system layout.

Thanks again for your great work so far!
