if that question is addressed at me, no.  i don't have the time to sort
out what of the mess on the web site is relevant; i have proposed that
those involved submit a replacement, but there's been no time for a
response to that.

i would recommend taking this discussion off the tex live list, since
most members are probably already thinking they wish we would go away.
musixtex is of minuscule interest to most tex users.
