You've been extremely rude to me in the past, but this time perhaps
you've actually caught me being wrong, which I freely admit to being at
least one third of the time. However, I'd appreciate a citation on when
or where I've said this. I recall saying that VST support in ardour is
"dead" (which is still not really correct), but I do not recall ever
saying that VST itself is dead. it would be odd if I did since I
certainly do not believe that. I perhaps suggested that VST as a future
API for audio plugins on Linux was dead. frankly, I still think that
this is likely, and that discoDSP will be the exception that proves the
rule but I'm genuinely happy to be proved wrong.
