I think we can meet the 3 seperate countries requirement.
I would like to try to set up something here with possible the
University in Uppsala and/or the Church.
I don't know if I qualify as an "industry" (note. eu defines an
industry as something that manuf. phycical goods, no I don't have the
ref. handy) partner, tought I have a company that have been involved
in typesetting for pay.
And I don't know if I can get any interest from the Univ. (they used
Sibelius a few years ago) or the Church.
