It's a missed opportunity for everyone involved.  Here was a developer of audio plugins with a lot of experience who could have provided a lot of valuable feedback, but chose not to do so.  It doesn't take that much time to fire off the crash log to the list or post something on Sourceforge, plus he would have a lot more direct interaction with the Pd developers.  Could have been a mutually beneficial relationship.

Anyway, I understand now - Chris is complaining generally about stability, not about vst~. It's troubling, but he's not going into specifics, so it's hard to know how to respond. I am genuinely curious about what's causing his troubles; I suspect it isn't his imagination, so that makes me wonder what the cause is.

As for the UI - well, I think everyone's aware of the situation there.

For audio interface setting persistence, I see that is now improved in Pd-extended; don't know if that's a patch worth making to Vanilla. It's a question that comes up a lot, and I don't know enough about the state of that feature, but I'd be curious to know.
