a preview version for Linux support

Nice - finally
Looking forward to this

Nice, no more issues with GPL code and now in a git repository. Too bad it's split in so many submodules (which are known to be a bad idea) for just a handful of files.

git submodules are only bad for fast moving targets.
The good thing is that you just can use the API (pluginterfaces) without the rest.

Thanks for the license change, it was always to awkward with open-source development. I don't understand why it doesn't extend to VST2, though.

Having everything in one repository would not have been a bad thing. Submodules are not just bad for fast moving targets, they are bad for everything.
Now, for such a small repository, it's even worse.

Have you checked if "vstgui_uidescription.lib" is in the path where it's looking? A lot of times I have issues like this simply because a file is in the wrong place - or missing.
