Hi,

Great that you want to take this over. I can sponsor you and help you a

Bug#197053: ITP: stk -- C++ classes for audio digital signal processing

2003-06-13 Thread guenter geiger

Hi,

I think I will bring up the topic on "legal" (later, going to be with
limited net access the next week). I definitely want it to
be in main, I think there are lots of packages with patent problems in
main, it is just unlucky that in this case the author clearly states
it.
Anyhow, I might search through  the package and split it in free an
non-free.

Thanks,
Guenter

Bug#78209: What is the current status?

2001-08-13 Thread guenter geiger

I still have the package I did a few months ago, before Eric VanBuggenhaut
said he would package it.

The software itself is not really easy to package nicely, but I think
basically the package could be uploaded this way, it's just a little
bit ugly (using it's own version of libdv etc ..)

Right, and we could keep up with libdv development.
Do you have a package of broadast, or should we use mine as a starting 
point ? We could try to upload it to experimental and start working on
that.
It will need a little bit of hacking in the source code, I think...

Come on, Eric

You asked me for permission to package it and I said you will do so,

Here the things start to get complicated. libquicktime is already a 
Debian package, but it is not fully compatible with the version that
broadcast uses, and in turn it uses libdv and libraw too.

So you have to coordinate with the quicktime4linux maintainer, 
Gerd Knorr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ...

All of heroines packages seem to be interleaved, best would be to 
maintain them all together.

I not up do date with subversion yet. I have converted the denemo 0.6.0-2

  Description : C++ classes for audio digital signal processing

  The Synthesis ToolKit in C++ (STK) is a set of open source audio signal
  processing and algorithmic synthesis classes written in C++. STK was
  designed to facilitate rapid development of music synthesis and audio
  processing software, with an emphasis on cross-platform functionality,
  realtime control, ease of use, and educational example code. The Synthesis
  ToolKit is extremely portable (it's mostly platform-independent C and C++
  code), and it's completely user-extensible (all source included, no unusual
  libraries, and no hidden drivers). We like to think that this increases the
  chances that our programs will still work in another 5-10 years. In fact,
  the ToolKit has been working continuously for nearly 8 years now. STK
  currently runs with "realtime" support (audio and MIDI) on SGI (Irix),
  Linux, Macintosh OS X, and Windows computer platforms. Generic,
  non-realtime support has been tested under NeXTStep, Sun, and other
  platforms and should work with any standard C++ compiler.


The license might be problematic though:

This software was designed and created to be made publicly available for 
free, primarily for academic purposes, so if you use it, pass it on with 
this documentation, and for free.  

If you make a million dollars with it, give us some.  If you make 
compositions with it, put us in the program notes.

Some of the concepts are covered by various patents, some known to us and 
likely others which are unknown.  Many of the ones known to us are 
administered by the Stanford Office of Technology and Licensing.  

The good news is that large hunks of the techniques used here are public 
domain.  To avoid subtle legal issues, we'll not state what's freely 
useable here, but we'll try to note within the various classes where 
certain things are likely to be protected by patents.
