I'm way too busy myself at the moment, but a couple of ecasound users have 
been interested in writing LADSPA plugins. I've started to promote LADSPA
as a C alternative to ecasound's native, heavily C++-based effect API.

For those of you who missed my Freshmeat announcement, ecasound's
stable-tree now supports LADSPA (1.7.7r11). Although not a very good
overall policy, I've included ladspa.h in the dist-package. Thanks to
this, users can start using LADSPA without too much hassle.

A *very* good idea! This would be a great way to get visibility.

Yep, we should have link pages for LADSPA hosts and plugins.

Well, as someone already said, this is important, but not critical.
