MMA 20.02a posted
https://mellowood.ca/mma/downloads.html#developer
Some nice little fixes including a bug in plugins with python3, a plectrum track fix that I call "let those strings ring" and a fix to the midi generation to get the key right. And, the continuing saga of minor fixes, doc clean ups, etc.
This is not a general user update ... I'd love some feedback from users.

MMA 19.08b test version
The order of arguments in DEFGROOVE has been reversed. This change makes the actual code reflect the documentation.
-xNoCredit, -xChords and -xCheckFile have been added. Fun.
Bunch of debugging, manual fixes, etc.
Fixed summary to show midi file duration as mm:ss.
Changed -g message to Skipped from Existing
The options -xCheckFile and -xChords have been modified from 19.08a. They now take their args separately. No = sign is needed/permitted.
The code for the zOPTIONS now finds the last chord. The docs for this section (Rests, section 8.4) have been rewritten.

Python 2.x support
My suggestion at this time is to support it in the 2020 tree and then remove all conditionals, etc. in the 2021 release. On the other hand, it's probably not a big deal to continue to support 2.x "forever" :)
I really want to hear from you all about this.
