About soundfonts, there is the fluid-soundfont-gm (and fluid-soundfont-gs) that is in the Debian/Ubuntu repository, is licensed under MIT, and sounds pretty good. It's quite large though (145 MB). (Available for download at: http://packages.debian.org/en/source/sid/fluid-soundfont )
It seems to me like neither Christian's GeneralUser_GS, nor the VintageDreamsWaves-v2 (that comes with a SVN checkout) complies to Debian's Free Software Guidelines, as they both restrict modification in some way. So they will most likely be removed from the Debian package. I know that Linux is bigger than Debian (and that Fluidsynth is bigger than Linux!) and that other distributions are unaffected by this limitation, I just wanted to add that point of view. // David Ebrahim Mayat skrev: > Josh, Pedro and Bernat > > As a service to Linux users, I propose that the 'GeneralUser GS > FluidSynth v1.43.rgd" file written by S Christian Collins be made > available as part of the new release distribution.
