Well, you arrived at the wrong mailing list. pdweb is for discussion of maintaining the pd communit website pure-data.org

You should head over to the "pd-list" mailing list, please.

i'm not so much into soundprocessing-programming but i want to know more about it, that's why some friends of mine and me want use PD for both, visual and accustic stuff.

my interests in pd are more of a "musical nature" than a programming one, that's why i have these questions:

in how far is it possible to use PD in the "professional" music-making process? is there a VST wrapper for effects (or instruments) written in PD? is it possible to write f.ex. a pitchshifter in PD (implementing some kind of VST-interface) "compile" it and run it in my sequencer (logic or cubase or w.s.e)? are there any efforts in this direction ? (allthough VST is not open and free)

There are efforts to make Pd a VST client but AFAIK it isn't done yet. So currently Pd can only be used in a sequencer via a midi connection. That is, unless you don't run Linux (or OS-X) where you could use the JACK Audio Connection Kit.
