I can't wait to read this!
Yes, persistence is about saving and restoring state.
Component packaging means, is the plugin a DLL, a static lib, an EXE; does
it use COM or other similar compenent technology?
Copy protection means, do we want to build in any explicit hooks in GMPI to
support vendors who use copy protection on their plugins? For example, I
can imagine some kind of handshake mechanism where the host actually
participates in the copy protection system.

Subject: [gmpi] Questions for requirements draft
I'm still working on the requirements draft proposal.
A couple questions:
The topic 'Persistence' - what kinds of things are we looking for here? Is
this just saving/restoring state?
Topic 'Component Packaging' - what is meant? Is this the packaging of the
code (e.g. in a dll) or of the plugin (e.g. all encapsulated in one
struct/object) or other?
Topic 'Copy protection' - I have no idea what requirements we have wrt copy
protection. Anyone want to throw me some ideas?
