Well thanks for the all the advice.
I guess I'm going to hold off on doing anything for a bit longer to see
if Logic 7 gets things sorted quickly.
I'll reassess in a few of weeks - and if necessary go with the
known-bad list (with all the tweaks that have been suggested).
Thanks again,
Robert.

I don't think it would be so difficult to manage a known-bad AU list
if you
include the AU version number along with the plug-in name. If a new
version of
a troublesome plug-in comes out, the known-bad list would not
prematurely
exclude the plug-in. Of course, some AU vendors, particularly those
who are
having trouble passing auval, may also not understand how to properly
increment
the version number. But that should be rare.

An XML file of known-bad AUs might be one way to do it. Be faster to
start up too. It would also allow us to let in some less-than perfect
members. And by going with the Bad AUs it would (hopefully) be a much
shorter list!
