Will do, but I am currently focused on making example plugins of a

slightly more advanced nature (in particular, demonstrating persistence,

use of files, and control via messages).

In previous releases, there was one (lv2jack).  However, I've decided to

move this to a separate project and make it a bit more powerful to serve

as an actually useful and correct host while remaining smallish.
Coming soon, dubbed Jalv (_Ja_ck _LV_2):

http://svn.drobilla.net/lad/trunk/jalv/
Personally I think plugin examples are far more needed, since anyone

writing a host is inherently going to know how to look at a library API

and figure out how to use the thing anyway.  I deliberately keep my

libraries separate from anything "official" LV2.
