Source: stk Version: 4.4.3-2 Severity: serious Hi,
stk contains a bundled copy of the Steinberg ASIO library headers in src/include. These files are under very strict licensing terms which can be found here (you have to download the SDK and open the PDF): http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/developers.html The term "Licensed Software Developer Kit" appears to cover all the code: 1.1 The object of this agreement consists of the Steinberg ASIO (Audio Stream I/O) Software Development Kit version 2.3, respectively any preview version of this Kit, comprising of documentation, example code, and several ASIO examples. These are described hereinafter as the "Licensed Software Developer Kit". The license goes on to include other terms which seem to prohibit modification or redistribution in most cases: 2.3 The Licensee has no permission to sell, license, give-away and/or distribute the Licensed Software Developer Kit or parts of it for the use as software developer kit in any way, for example, integrated in any framework application, on any medium, including the Internet, to any other person, including sub-licensors of the Licensee or companies where the Licensee has any involvement. This includes re-working this specification, or reverse-engineering any products based upon this specification. 2.4 In case the Licensed Software Developer Kit is modified, it shall not be published, sold or distributed without agreement of Steinberg. Furthermore, the naming of the Licensed Software Developer Kit shall not include “ASIO 2.3 SDK” or any combination containing the VST brand without permission of Steinberg. Thanks, James
