I'm not an Haiku developer (not yet at least) but I really can't
understand why you give so much attention to VST plugins.
Ok, it's a widely accepted standard, but anyone you need to rebuild
..., but *anyway*...
plugins to run on Haiku, right?
Then its SDK license is the most restrictive I know of... take a look
if you're not familiar: http://www.steinberg.de/532+M52087573ab0.html
I'm not a lawyer but I don't think it's legal to redistribute even
their header files, so anyone who wishes to build any lib/app directly
using VST must download such files from their website, accepting that
license (as it goes with dssi-vst-bridge, fst, and so on).
In the end, the only application I know which uses native VST plugins
on a non-officially supported OS (apart from VST MediaAddOn) is the
young JOST (http://www.anticore.org/jucetice/?page_id=4)
Sincerely,
Stefano
