Dear GSoC coordinators,

I am writing on behalf of the LilyPond developer community.

We would like to ask you adding the following entry to
http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2016.html:

LilyPond is a music engraving program devoted to producing the highest-quality 
sheet music possible.  Users describe the music in a high-level text input 
format, which LilyPond processes to produce pdf, png, svg, and/or midi files.  
LilyPond is written in C++ and Guile (the GNU project’s Scheme interpreter), 
with Guile also serving as user-level extension language.  LilyPond maintains a 
list of GSoC project suggestions on 
http://lilypond.org/google-summer-of-code.html.

Additionally we would like to ask how and when to proceed about the
allocation of slots. Last year we had two slots and unfortunately had to
give one of them back because a student "got lost". This year we have
four students who have expressed interest in applying so far, and my
impression is that this will result in at least three real applications.
Of course there is still time so the numbers may raise or fall, but we'd
like to know where and when we should "apply" for a number of slots.

Best wishes
Urs Liska
