I had a look at the FIXMEs and there are indeed some problems (sorry, if
I didn't notice that before):

I couldn't find a license for the asio driver, but I think that it can
be safely removed, since it is not needed on Linux (this applies for every
file under the 'src/milkyplay/drivers/generic/rtaudio/asio/' folder).

This is clearly not DFSG-compliant... I also think that it can be removed 
and substituted with the soundcard.h provided by the oss4-dev package 
(which seems to be free).

This has to be removed as well (GNU FDL is not DFSG-compatible).

There is something I don't understand: is it really needed to have 
both 'GPL+Milkytracker-3+' and 'GPL-3+' licenses, since they are the
same license?

Also, for the generic 'LGPL' what version should be used?

Thanks
