Yes and no. I'm just to lazy to work on that :P

The real issue is that it needs some thinking and there are so many more 
things that need to be thought of.

And the real reason is that LV2 plugins barely exist, and the quality of the 
existing ones isn't exactly mindblowing either.
So unless that situation doesn't improve, then I don't see much of a reason to 
waste my time on the plugin front. Adding support for ladspa plugins, dunno 
either. LV2 is supposed to supersede the ladspa ones, so as soon as I manage 
to add ladspa support you'll see that all these plugins are ported the other 
day to LV2 ;)

A more interesting approach is picking the real good ones, which belong to the 
basic set of features for a daw, and pull that code into Traverso, create a 
gui for those, and wait and see how LV2 matures or not....

Greetz,

P.S. using jackrack is an option too perhaps?
Besides, I simply don't have time to work on plugins now, this weird selection 
and grouping and whatnot takes all my brains to maximum load, and still 
nothing happened :P
