i think that's a little inaccurate. "major players in the industry
have no interest" is accurate. for all that it has been lampooned,
GMPI did represent a pretty cross-industry effort to define a
universal standard. predictably, though it started without
participation from Digidesign; Apple bowed out at the first meeting
noting "We've already done this with AudioUnits", and Steinberg
decided that VST was actually the family jewels rather than an open
plugin standard. there was plenty of interest from plugin developers
and authors of other hosts, but without these three titans on board,
there's not a lot that can be done.
