Well, I think I've found a compromise. On one hand, I agree with you
that a single resources page exclusively for Lilyponders is much more
convenient. On the other hand, I suppose Han-Wen was afraid (and he has
certainly reasons for that :-)) that it was a mess in the site building
scripts after I'd have added my scripts, just for one more little
resources page.
In fact, I don't need to include the scripts for the resources page in
the official CVS site source: I can just run the scripts myself and then
give you the result. You (i.e. the webmaster, the translators,...) just
needn't know the machinery I use to build and maintain this page.
So, let's do that: Han-Wen, I'll send you the new files and the patch
for modified files that you'll apply to a cvs copy of the site source,
then you'll be able to see the final result with 'make'ing it (unless
you prefer that I send you a *ugh* 4 MB tarball).
