of course a new codebase would be nonsense. the problem is (again) that
now the plugins are packaged by author rather then by category or
quality ...

yep. maybe the gstreamer way is a possible solutions, or something
similar. they have three categories: good, bad and ugly (which are also
different packages):
-------8<--------
gst-plugins-good: a set of good-quality plug-ins under our preferred
license, LGPL
gst-plugins-ugly: a set of good-quality plug-ins that might pose
distribution problems
gst-plugins-bad: a set of plug-ins that need more quality
--------8<--------
(http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/modules/)
So I think a common SVN/CVS repository for LADSPA plugins would be nice,
if all authors would agree on that and would manage their code within that.
LG
