@facej They can conceivably be described as a presentation technology. Much like the way SVG is being used alongside CSS for fonts, etc.

@facej Of course you do. You're a brilliant guy - if you build it - they might come!

@scatteredbrainV Yes it did, and thanks for remembering SMIL. :D MusicXML has been around a long time, actually.
