Good. I'll come back to it ;-)

Not really discussed yet.
I'd consider it most practical to think of it as a standalone project, 
with the option of incorporating individual items/solutions/functions to 
LilyPond whenever it seems appropriate.

It was already discussed on this list: It was a silly idea to use 
copyrighted material at all for this tutorial. It was just something I 
was working on at that time, and I didn't really think about it ...
But I just reviewed my communication with UE and noticed that I (and 
them) only talked about the 'measures' of the music, not about which 
rendering of them (i.e. a scan of the UE edition or my new typesetting). 
They allowed me 'to show these music examples on my homepage' - any 
other use wasn't allowed.
Which I think means that I can also put the original edition into it.

But I probably won't touch it until I reformat it as a PDF version. 
There had been some valuable comments on this list right after the first 
'release' of the tutorial - which still haven't been incorporated :-(
