one the design goals of a good plugin API is to make life simple for
plugins, because there are lots of them and presumably quite a few
authors too, at a certain expense to hosts, because there are relatively

there are lots of little gotchas even with the amazingly simple API that
LADSPA 1 represents, and quite a few of these will become simpler or
will vanish with the metadata scheme that steve has outlined.
Erm, just to voice my opinion on this LADSPA 2 thing i kinda hijack your
