I'm rather happy to hear that JOST and with it native VSTs are on the
decline as they combine the worst problems of both worlds, the license
issues of VST and required porting. Hopefully developers will spend
their time porting to LV2 now.

Qtractor's been doing a pretty good job with the native VSTs I've tried
in it. What really needs done is a repair/rejuvenation of Lucio
Asnaghi's JOST. A working standalone host for native VSTs would be nice.
I recently purchased Loomer's Sequent, it's a lot of fun. I notice they
also have a nice-looking synthesizer in their catalog.
The LinuxDSP plugins - in all formats - seem pretty professional to my
ears and eyes.
Best,
dp Don't forget native Linux VST's, their
number is steadily growing also.
I think I have about 60 to 70 of those sitting on my harddrive.
Unfortunately there are very few hosts.
The last sentence quite nails it :)
