There was talk of re-awakening XAP. I still have some hope left for GMPI.

Perhaps I focus too much on details, but THAT is what seems to be the important. Fundamental issues that relate to the overall model. Also, I apologize for seemingly taking over things. I know Ron is busy, and no one has complained, so I've just kept it up. Anyone who'd do a better job is welcome to do so, I just warn you that I am an opinionated bastard. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
