Well, if you want a piece of code to work in multiple environments you
either need to write multiple interfaces or make sure that those
different environments are equivalent from the new code's point of view
(i.e. uses a common plugin interface). I don't see how there can be
anything inbetween.

There is definitely something to be said for a
user just having to
install a single plugin package of, say, a cool new filter, and
immediately have it work in his modular synth, his sample editor, his
harddisk recorder etc. Having the source doesn't help someone who
doesn't know how to program,
you are switching from one radical to the other. there are possibilities
and advantages between those poles, but as said, this needs to be
fleshed out and turned into some kind of blog article. i have this
thought boiling for quite some time, and i suppose it's about time i
elaborate on it.
