isn't max/jmax look&feel copyrighted in any way?
Does IRCAM have some sort of patent on it's 3D look, like Apple for it's trash can? Like jMax itself, it's probably copylefted, but it's unclear if there could be legal issues with importing specific graphical features from a GPL software (jMax) to a BSD software (PD). Of course, it would fair to mention that those graphics comes from jMax, and the jMax team might even like that PD promotes the jMax look'n'feel.
What's really important is that the look and feel of PD can be "improved", even themable, which is the holly grail of coolness on the XJ scenes.
