which is exactly what i was suggesting. i'm not calling to use sf2 as a
standard, but using merely the order, metaphors and lingo of the format

the new format will be extensible, so it's not bad to start off with a
known feature set.
it will take a few weeks until i have time for this, so be prepared :)
A very late response ... but are you aware of libInstPatch:

suppose the best way would be to reimplement sf2 as some kind of
xsfz format, write a forth-back conversion library/utility and release
the whole work under a bsd licence to make it easy for free and
commercial developers to catch up...
Sound Font is a dead end. One of the few things that was agreed by the
majority on that list, was to use an XML based format for the articulation

makes sense, considering where we all come from. You know.... command line
fetishists, light-weight text editor freaks.
