I have identified a different wii library that runs on Windows and
Linux and is LGPLv3  (wiiuse on SF).  Will take a little time to
re-engineer and test but that seems a better route.

do these libraries handle plugging the nunchuck directly (via usb)?

on another thought -- what there really should be is some OSC (or  
MIDI?) universal driver that can just sit on your system and convert  
every controller known to man...  is there one?

What you are talking about, a universal connection, is just what OSC
was designed for. But each device on the other end of the connection
needs to have its own unique OSC driver. So far, manufacturers seem to
feel obligated to provide MIDI output drivers, but not OSC drivers.
But, that could still change!

Mike

Is LGPL v2 compatible with LGPLv3? I know GPL v2 and v3 aren't... It
seems the only way out would be licensing GPLv3...

The library I am looking at now signals plugging and unplugging
nunchuck, as a state variable.  Not sure what question you are really
asking.

Part of the reason for writing direct wii opcodes rather than use a
separate OSC translator is that experience has shown a certain amount of
instability in having another program to maintain.

This is getting worse.  Shoudl I just put on my thinking cap and code
a complete wii access code wthout anyone elses library?  Would that be
"safe"?  Makes one wish for a return to my licence, or BSD, or public
domain.

Do not fret. I am not a lawyer, but in my opinion Csound's license
situation is OK and is in keeping with the majority of open source
projects that I have seen.

Mike

According to the compatibility matrix you listed, there aren't any
licensing issues as long as the LGPLv3 code is treated as a library
(e.g., the user would be able to relink csound to their own version of
the code).  Which intuitively seems right for the LGPL.

Licensing would only be a problem if the wiiuse code was actually
copied into csound in some manner.

Cheers,
John Lato

Yes, exactly.  As long as the Wii library is only used as a dynamic library,
there is no incompatibility and no need to change Csound's license.

If the Wii DLL is distributed with Csound, we would have to meet any
distribution requirements for the LGPL v3, but they are actually more
relaxed than for LGPL v2 in some respects.
