License of maxmsp.lib RBJ filters

jpcima opened this issue · comments

Hello,

I have an application that requires me to use the RBJ filter set, which is available in the library maxmsp.lib.
A I have observed, this library seems a bit dated, it's not in stdfaust.lib, but also it's licensed as ordinary LGPL without exception.

Currently, I wish to include this in a BSD-licensed project, preferably without submitting the whole program to constraints of LGPL.

The option is to reimplement this myself, but it's a shame to remake a library of such common, documented, easily implemented filters.

Would it be possible to revise the license of RBJ filters?
I would like to ask original authors, however they are not mentioned in the file source, and git history does not go far enough to know this information.

Thank you

Seems feasible yes, @orlarey do you see any reason not to do it ?

Licence update done in 6e33452

Thank you ! very appreciated.
Should the license metadata not be updated as well ?

For example in envelopes.lib, this is written:
declare license "LGPL with exception";

Thanks, closing
