[linux-audio-user] sf2 soundfont spec license

Would anyone care to comment as to whether this means it's
okay to redistribute this document, or not ?

"INTERNAL USE ONLY" could be a showstopper.

A LICENSE IS HEREBY GRANTED TO COPY, REPRODUCE, AND DISTRIBUTE
THIS SPECIFICATION FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY. NO OTHER LICENSE 
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY ESTOPPEL OR OTHERWISE, TO ANY OTHER
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IS GRANTED OR INTENDED HEREBY.

And, regardless of the status of (re)distributing the
document itself, has anyone got a feel for the openness, or
not, of the specification outlined within this document ?

Is it ultimately a waste of time to use this sf2 standard
in conjunction with perpetual open source projects ?

If it is not open enough to take advantage of then is there
any truly open soundfont-like standard anywhere on the planet?

The rest of it is here...
