I very much hope that our recent "inofficial survey" is biased for
whatever reasons. But I admit this impression is very strong.

Not that I know of, but it's a good idea, and I've had the wish to start
compiling such material for quite a long time. Unfortunately that
probably won't happen without a concrete opportunity.

Good idea.
I know that in some universities there are people offering LilyPond
courses, with mixed result/acceptance. But it definitely should be much
more, and I think people should get hooked to text based tools as early
as possible, before they are too much tied to their shiny clickediclick
tools.
