From: Rainer Thelonius Balthasar Straschill > see subject! I'm willing to take a look at it if no one else wants to. The basic VST wiring shouldn't be too hard. The UI will probably be the hardest part because I would want to use VSTGUI and I don't normally use that. Any VSTGUI hackers on the list? Note though that there is a theoretical legal problem. The Ninjam client code (which I assume the AU plugin is based on) is licensed as GPL. This means that all other code that is combined with it in an "assembly" must have a license that is "compatible with the GPL". Steinberg's VST SDK uses a license that is not compatible with GPL. This has been a long standing complaint on the VST forum, but Steinberg shows no signs of changing this. What this means is that if there was some asshole with too much free time and a lawyer, they could prevent us from distributing the VST Ninjam plugin. I seriously doubt anyone from Cockos is going to have a problem with this, but it would be good manners to tell them about it. A big thanks to Os for doing this! Jeff
