Jeffery,
thanks for your work on scholarLY.  

Please don't be discouraged by sparse feedback from the list: there are
certainly some of us who are keen to use scholarLY but who do not know
LaTeX, or are unwilling to wrap our existing lilypond scores in it.
Both lilypond and LaTeX have steep learning curves, and not everyone is
willing to tackle both of them.  Speaking for myself, I have used
\criticalRemark, but until it can produce lilypond/score footnotes it is
little more than an elaborate comment in the source code.  Once it can
produce such footnotes, we'll be able to use it to greater effect, your
user base will grow, we'll be in a position to understand some of the
choices you are offering, and you'll get better feedback.

Looking forward to v1.0.
