LV2 represents some kind of version of the

is so superior because its rooted in a feature that actually makes it
quite annoying for anyone who isn't instantly convinced that endless
extensibility is the right goal. But it allows for more or less
anything, assuming that both parties (the plugin and the host) can
agree on it.
I followed you up to this paragraph. LADSPA started it, DSSI improved
on it, and LV2 tried to be the end-all-be-all (the final solution) if
I'm understanding correctly. Oh, and VAMP is sort of a side-show
freak. But can you explain what you mean here, "assuming that both
parties can agree on it"?
