What are the rules about distributing this? Pd from Miller is released with a BSD license, so that's easy. But Pd-extended is released under the GNU GPL because most of the code in CVS is GPL'd, so that makes things more complicated. But it would be quite nice to be able to distribute FFTease built-in to Pd-extended.
It depends which flavour of BSD license it is. Old BSD can't be mixed with GPL. SIBSD can be mixed and is the result of an agreement between Berkeley University and Stallman/FSF. Additional clauses on top of SIBSD are not ok unless they are clauses that are found in the GPL (or are equivalent of parts of clauses found in the GPL).
BTW, where's the source code of that release of FFT? I don't see the source available on the author's page. (I am blind, right?)
He said they are not currently distributing the source.
