PML-Asia (Taiwan) launched

[DBMiller]

I'm pleased to inform you that Petrucci Music Library Asia (PML-Asia), based in Taiwan, has launched, and that its listings are now integrated into IMSLP.

Taiwanese copyright law is now covered on the public domain page.

Much like PML-US, PML-Asia should only be used for files that cannot go on the main IMSLP servers based in Canada. In the case of PML-Asia, these fall into two basic categories:

* Items with authors who died between 1972 and 1974 (expanding to 1975 next year, and so on).
* Items by authors who died in 1971 or earlier, but which are not in the public domain in Canada due to their date of performance/publication (so, various posthumous works).

Files can be uploaded to PML-Asia through a similar process to the one used for uploads to PML-US. See the instructions for uploading to PML-Asia.

Furthermore, please note that, while many recordings are in the public domain in Taiwan, PML-Asia does not support audio/video files at this time. Support for recordings will come later; for starters, PML-Asia will only host sheet music (PDFs and engraving source files).

I tried this for https://imslp.org/wiki/Flute_Sonata_in_ ... Gottfried) with
Editor Johann Philipp Hinnenthal (1883-1973) but I couln't see the green box to upload to PML-Asia, even in Classic interface.

Please correct this page accordingly.

You should see the following when uploading on the classic interface:
