I have a working plugin (called "dirg") that
provides a UI by hosting a
web server which you access in the browser. It provides a grid UI either
via a Novation Launchpad, or in the browser if you don't have a
Launchpad. Web UIs definitely have a ton of wins (think tablets, remote
control (i.e. network transparency), etc.)
I also have a complete LV2 "message" system based on Atoms which is
compatible with / based on the event extension. Atoms, and thus
messages, can be serialised to/from JSON (among other things,
particularly Turtle).
Any of them available to have a look at?
Currently dirg provides the web server on its own with
no host
involvement, but every plugin doing this obviously doesn't scale, so
some day we should figure this out... first we need an appropriately
high-level/powerful communication protocol within LV2 land (hence the
messages stuff).
Where do you stand with priorities now? That sounds like something
very much worth investing time in.
You see, one thing I'm puzzled about is that you have beginnings of
what could be significant part of a potentially successful cloud
computing audio app, and then you talk about how donations don't even
pay your rent :)
