Today we celebrate 5 year since the 1.0.0 release. That's hard to imagine but the huge amount of work has been done.
For these 5 years LSP Plugins became one of the top audio plugins used in Linux music production. Among this period new requirements came to the project and we tried to fulfill them all while caring for the quality, stability and performance of the software.
Anyway, there are some requirements that don't fit into the project and require the codebase to be rewritten. This year was dedicated for refactoring and decomposition of core modules but, sadly, the refactoring process did not end up to the end of this year. Hope we'll finally end up with the 1.2.0 release in the next year which will refresh the internal plugin architecture and change user and developer experience.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
