Hi Pedro,
thank you, this confirms what I suspected from my understandings. Then
this also is the case with PortAudio, since this is released under GPL,
too.
Cleaning this up, prevents me from wasting time with this
anymore.
Regards
Bernd.

Absolutely.
GPL and LGPL
licenses require you to provide all the source code needed to
rebuild the
distributed binary library upon request from an user.
Steinberg
explicitly forbids you to distribute the source code of the ASIO
SDK, (or
the VST SDK) when you accept the online download conditions.
If you
distribute a binary product under a GPL/LGPL license linked to one of
those Steinberg SDKs you are going to break one
license.

Pedro
