[edit] Authors
NoteEdit used to be a software child of Jörg Anders for a very long time. Since August 2004, a new development team was formed. Now there are quite a few people behind this software project:
- Reinhard Katzmann, project manager
- Christian Fasshauer, programmer
- Erik Sigra, developer
- David Faure, KDE User Interface
- Matt Gerassimoff
- Leon Vinken, MusicXML
- Georg Rudolph, LilyPond interface
- Matevž Jekovec, developer and composer
- Karai Csaba, developer
Although NoteEdit is still maintained, some of the current developers have started a new project, Canorus, to replace it, since the NoteEdit source code has certain limitations that make it difficult to maintain and improve.
