Ah, didn't know detest is an English word as well..
I understand why you hate this, it rarely works as well as it should.
On the other hand, software today is nothing but layer upon layer upon
layer...
NASPROs goal is a noble and pragmatic one however, it tries to make any
plugin available in any lv2 host. Afaik, I still haven't tested it, it
doesn't provide any GUI.

But I'm sure that you see the benefit of a

pretty much is on windows. Anyway, there's no easy way to solve the
multiple-standards thing in Linux land apparently.
A single standard would be a good thing. But in the field of
audio plugin standards all Linux efforts have had the same
approach: to make things as simple as possible in order to
avoid scaring away even the most unprepared would-be authors.
With the result of ignoring any form of real analysis, or
pushing it into the future. One thing that
I'm wondering about though, what about NASPRO? Do you
think it might be able to wrap around your plugins and bridge to lv2?

If there's one thing I do detest down to the center of my bones
it is such wrapping of layer upon layer to transform A into B.
And if NASPRO would be able to 'bridge' my system, it would still
require extensions to LV2 which is its base, the same that would
be required without NASPRO. Nothing at all is gained by doing this.
