Sorry, the hosting migration has been a bit rougher than expected. I
have a dump of the entire Wiki, which will be restored soon.
That said, I agree with the original premise that well-documented
*examples* are what is most needed, by a long shot. "Tutorials" and
other prosey things that aren't working examples and few people are
likely to bother with, not so much.
I agree.
For now, maybe that you could just review and commit the amplifier example
mentioned by Gabriel. I think that a trunk/examples/ folder would be nice.
Will do, but I am currently focused on making example plugins of a
slightly more advanced nature (in particular, demonstrating persistence,
use of files, and control via messages).
That said, what about a Hello World host example? I
know there are various ways
to parse Turtle, and a host example may be a bit Lilv-specific. But having
minimal host+plugin examples on the official LV2 website would be useful. Or at
least a link to a simple Lilv host example.
In previous releases, there was one (lv2jack). However, I've decided to
move this to a separate project and make it a bit more powerful to serve
as an actually useful and correct host while remaining smallish.
Coming soon, dubbed Jalv (_Ja_ck _LV_2):
http://svn.drobilla.net/lad/trunk/jalv/
Personally I think plugin examples are far more needed, since anyone
writing a host is inherently going to know how to look at a library API
and figure out how to use the thing anyway. I deliberately keep my
libraries separate from anything "official" LV2.

Please sign up and modify the site as you see fit, the entire thing
(except of course generated docs and such) is a Wiki.
I actually don't know the SVN URL, and I think that a page listing all download
options is better written by official maintainers.
