You are of course correct here, and the point 3B (below) in Ron's current list would fall into the same category. Since the 3B says nothing about the connection between DSP and host one could assume that it could be a network ? "3. What are the target "form factors" for GMPI plugins? A: On the same platform as the application B: On dedicated (DSP) hardware with a software interface to the host".
