Thanks for your input to the discussion.

I think that QuteCsound should be the main if not only GUI in the Windows 
installers. For this, I would prefer that the license be changed to LGPL v2 
or v3, and for that, yes the Qt library will need to be upgraded to 4.5.

I do think it is valuable to provide a single download that provides a 
complete Csound installation with all bells, whistles, help, CsoundAC, and 
so on.

Csound is an unruly monster, but it is a powerful and to some, a very 
attractive one. I think that if QuteCsound becomes the standard GUI, then 
more developers, including myself, will contribute to it and both Csound and 
QuteCsound will continue to lose bugs and gain features.

Regards,
Mike

Hi all,

I would be very pleased if QuteCsound was included in the installers
and to get some help from other developers. I currently distribute
QuteCsound under he GPLv3 license but I'm willing to change that if
there's interest (this would only be possible when QuteCsound is built
against Qt 4.5, since current versions are GPL, and 4.5 is LGPL).
However, I'm not sure how good an idea is to include a new set of
dependencies on the installers, since I currently bundle the needed Qt
libs with QuteCsound.

You really should look at it again. It has improved a lot in this and
other respects.

Cheers,

Completely agree - and QuteCsound keeps getting better and better and  
better - the new viewGraphs menu item, the new examples menu, the new  
widgets (wow!)

It is time for everyone to download and check it out - again!
