Given the nature of the numerics, I would use FDLS to design filters
from noisy frequency domain measurements (for example to fit a
periodogram or the like) and FDMM to design filters from analytic
(smooth) frequency domain prototype. LS allows for wiggles that won't
occur in MM (assuming that the frequency grid is dense enough).

Having said that, I have never actually used FDMM to design any
filters (I used FDLS in my negative group delay blog), so YMMV.

Well, Armstrong did his moon walk in the late '60s...

I found the reference Clay Turner directed me to a few
years ago:

[1] K. Steiglitz, Computer Aided Design of Recursive Digital Filters,
IEEE
Trans. Audio Electroacoust., vol. AU-18 June 1970, pp. 123-129.

If you have a general optimization framwork that paper
contains everything you need to implement your own
design program.

A huge part of the important work was done in the 60s and 70s if not
before....

One can go back in history to find discrete sequence processing algorithms
back 100s of years. Thus, "DSP".
