It is really nice that there will be a Linux - MacOSX version too after
the Windows release.

Miller Puckette was in Helsinki for this weekend during ISEA 2004, and
during the workshop we were talking about if there is any vst object or
not for MacOS, but then it came
out as a suggestion, if there would be some kind of Instrument library,
like MIDI instrument lib, that could be directly connected to PD, so that
all MIDI based objects could read MIDI instruments info from this Library.

I dont know so much about if "PD abstractions" also works like this kind
of MIDI instrument library. Maybe I should check that one too.
