Quoting Steve Harris <S.W.Harris(a)ecs.soton.ac.uk>uk>:
My suggestion is that we ressurect the XAP name
(http://www.google.com/search?q=lad+xap)
It stood for Xap Audio Plugin IIRC.
Pros: it's short*, relatively unused** and pronouncable***
More pros: we would have a VST -alike logo already! (looking at
http://xap-plugins.org/artwork.html).
And it's not too VST -alike, as XAP doesn't share a single letter with VST.
Cons: xap.{com,org,net} will have gone long ago (too
short), theres a
small ammount of baggage.
I think we would select a short name anyway. Most of them are gone already,
so we have the same problem whichever [a-z][a-z][a-z] we select :)
