[PD] Expr objects are GPL or LGPL?

[Shahrokh Yadegari]

Hi All,

Please forgive my late reply. I usually read the list digest and I had been
away for a while thus I missed this thread. Miller is right. Expr has been
under BSD license since it became part of the pd sources. I just fixed the
error on my website.

Cheers,
Shahrokh
