It worked.
They are not that stupid. And they didn't need me to find out the things they did not like: extensions being created and then deprecated, extensions that 'exist' on some web page but are implemented nowhere, tutorials that start with saying that everything has changed and they should be ignored, etc. At one time, pointing out that the Catholic church maybe had made some mistakes was 'blasphemy' and you could end up on the stake. You seem to have a similar definition of 'fud' - any statement that does not glorify the excellence of LV2 is immediately classified as such.

AFAIK it does all they need quite well. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
