Did you take a look at the site? He has already got VSTGUI

for one would much prefer native VSTs on Linux than trying to
work with libfst...
Maybe it would be better if he was porting the VSTs to LADSPA
plugins, but I really don't know how feasible this would be..
More choice is better IMHO.
The "new traction" thing seems a bit overblown to me.. From the
website it seems he hacked together a host for native linux VSTs
in 30 mins.. no mention of where it is going.

Hi there,
The italian DJ and Developer Lucio Asnaghi has made a first preview of simple
host for native VST on Linux. Native VST for Linux was founded first by
native VST for linux has yet to produce anything concrete at all,
AFAICT. developers of VST plugins are *not* writing plugins for linux.
if you wanted to make native VST on linux easier, the sensible thing to
do is to implement VSTGUI on top of X11 and/or one or more contemporary
toolkits.
