You'll h
I would like GMPI to be ready for future enhancements so that it can
maintain backwards compatibility. For instance, if a bitfield is used,
make it a large-ish one for future enhancements without breaking older
hosts.

The API I expect, this is necceasry to allow multli API plugins (LADSPA
want versioned and is now).
A #define is enough.

These are requirements. It's not time to decide such things. Hopefully,
it's one main API, with as few as possible support APIs (which are required
so
1)is API monolithous or there are sub-APIs
like GMPI-audio, GMPI-seq, GMPI-control
2) Explicit versioning for API?
3) Explicit versioning for plugins?
4) uniq IDs for plugins?
who is authority?
5) format for plugin state saving:
XML? (damn its ugly!)
I vote for more YAML-like languag
