Pretty much just in a planning stage at the moment.  I was getting quite far 
creating a gui with bendy wires going over the top of modules, somewhere 
between SpiralSynthModular and the Nord Modular screenshot that Steve posted, 
but I'm now convinced that a routing-style gui, with wires that get 
automatically routed at right-angles would be even more cool.  Trying to work 
out how to make that happen is currently doing my head in.

I've got big plans for it if and when I do get it going, though: integrated 
alsa midi patchbay, LADSPA plugins, LADCCA support... basically I'm trying to 
make a meta-app that can be used to organise linux audio sessions.
