Thanks for this exciting news. I've downloaded SAOLC and am experimenting
with it.
Unfortunately, the project file is calling for libcpd.lib and I don't know
what that is or where to get it. Any ideas?

Subject: [ANNOUNCE] saolc v. 1.0 (FDIS release) available
>Greetings,
>
>I am pleased to announce the release of a new version of saolc,
>which brings us to version 1.0. This version is compliant with
>all of the normative SAOL parts of the Structured Audio FDIS,
>as far as I have been able to test.
>
>Executables (currently only SGI and Windows) as well as complete
>source code are available from the SA home page. This version
>also includes a lengthy documentation (40 pp) that describes in
>excruciating detail how all of saolc works. The SA home page
>remains at http://sound.media.mit.edu/mpeg4.
>
>All of the code in this release is in the public domain, and you are
>welcome to use it for any purpose you like.
>
>With this release, the main development of saolc will cease at the
>Media Lab. I will do whatever patching proves necessary over
>the next two weeks, and then ship the ISO-copyright code to
>ISO. At that point, the reference software is completely frozen
>and cannot even be debugged without passing official
>corrigenda. So please test the software and help me find bugs
>until this time!
>
>If others in the community wish to contribute patches and improvements
>to saolc, I will be happy to apply the patches and maintain the
>software in the Linux model. I would also be happy to host
>executables for other platforms if people can compile them for
>me.
>
>The test bitstreams on the website have been re-encoded to
>be compliant to the FDIS. This means that they won't work with
>the old software anymore, and similarly the new software will
>not parse old bitstreams. Now that the draft is frozen, this won't
>be a problem again.

>I would like to include a page of pointers to other SA projects on
>the SA home page. If you are working on an SA project and
>can announce it to the community, please send me a pointer
>to your web page and a brief description of what the project is
>about. This is mostly for marketing purposes and doesn't
>commit you to public release of the software -- I want to be able
>to show off how much buy-in is already occurring for the SA tools.
>Please send me an email even if I already know about your
>project, so I can use that as confirmation that you're willing
>to be linked.
>
>Very best to all,
>
