And in some files, renaming variables to 'hungarian' style. Which
pretty much excludes the possibility of any 'improvements' being
integrated with the original.

Plus that in order to to do what he claims (provide an OSC interface)
you don't need to touch this file at all, it's part of the DSP code.
Aeolus already has a pretty complete separation of DSP and GUI, the
latter technically being a plugin and communicating with the rest
via asynchronous messages only. So to OSC-ify Aeolus you only need
to write a new plugin.
