Cool, that sounds very good, I haven't really tried out the MusicXML  
using fomus, yet. But from other experiences I made, I believe that  
neither the import into Finale nor Sibelius (seems to be worse) works  
without issues that one would categorize as being solely cosmetic. : 
( 5-Tuplets seem to be too hard for Sibelius and with Finale I don't  
remember what (nested tuplets?), but there has been something else as  
well concerning the rhythmical structure (I only used the demo  
version, so maybe...).

If one concentrates only on the rhythmical framework, time  
signatures, durations, tuplets, beaming and pitches, are your  
experiences with Finale or Sibelius pretty okay?
