This is a very good plan and I'm sure that if the wine guys sense that there is really a community out there who needs this kind of support they will do something. I don't know how easy is going to be to find a windows project that beside being free it is open source. I found this site for now: http://rm-and-jo.laughingsquid.org/Text/Guide-To-VST-Hosts.html There Bidule http://www.plogue.com/ looks ok, but it doesn't seem to be Open Source. I'll keep searching... and let's start the campaign! hector
