>>> REQ 17 is useless , can be an obvious parenthesys of the REQ 18 <<< I disagree. A GMPI plugin can present a stub to the host that merely exposes its interface, but might not "run" in the hosts address space. I guess it comes down to what you mean by "run" in the host space. Re the FIXME, and out-of-process GUIs, I missed where this requirement came in. I can see why GMPI would need to enable (optional) out-of-process GUIs, but does it really need to *require* them? (I realize I'm getting off topic for 3.6 and 3.7, we can hash this out when we get to 3.16). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Generalized Music Plugin Interface (GMPI) public discussion list Participation in this list is contingent upon your abiding by the following rules: Please stay on topic.
