Compared to LADSPA, all plugin data +is moved from the code to a separate data file, and the code has been made as +generic as possible. As a result, LV2 can be independently extended +(retaining compatibility wherever possible), and virtually any feasible +plugin features can be implemented in an LV2 plugin. + +More information about LV2 can be found at . + +This package is the "core" LV2 specification in usual source package form. +The major version of this package refers to the LV2 specification revision +contained, while the minor version refers only to this package. + +Application authors aren't required to depend on this package (including lv2.h +in source distributions is acceptable) but any system with LV2 plugins should +have the LV2 bundle contained in this package installed somewhere in the LV2 +path (it contains plugin classes and other useful information). + +Please see README file for installation instructions (this package doesn't +really fit into the usual 'library', 'program', etc. categories). + +Distributions are encouraged to include this package. + + -- David Robillard -- cgit v1.2.1
