just for info - GStreamer has such a concept. Its currently only used by totem
on ubuntu. The nice things are:
* it works hand-in-hand with the underlying distro (so when you update your
packages, you get also new version of those plugins)
* applications don't need to be restarted

IMHO, i think a freshmeat-style site for linux
audio plugins is just what we
need. it must say if the plugin work correctly from a technical point of
view. It may allows user to add tags on a plugins (like 'electro'
'distortion' 'classical') and allows other user to rate the pertinence
of
the tag.
Hi all,
what about setting up an Internet service to find, download and
install plugins directly from audio applications? Maybe a library can be developed to do this,
containing all the needed
stuff to properly interface with the packaging system of each
distro/OS (or in case there aren't any, download the source and tell
the user to compile it) and maybe also downloading the packages
directly from the repository of the given distro (or the official
source tarballs).
What do you think about it? Is it feasible?
Just my 2 cents.
Stefano
