[gmpi] Re: Instruments done, moving on to "Plugin Files"

In any case, as we've allready agreed to using bundles I dont see how it
makes sense to weld this particular block of data into a DLL. For most
purposes the host should just have to look at the metadata file to know
enough to display a UI entry for the plugin, so it saves it doing an
expensive DLL open.


Completely outside of the meta-data licensing issue, I'm not sure that I'm happy with the bundle requirement. Why is it proposed? Is it just to make copying the plugin from one place to another easier? It doesn't seem to make the host's life easier, nor the plugin developers. Anyone want to enlighten me?
