I /personally/ agree that an "official SDK" is silly... be it LV2 or

Android or Qt or MeeGo or whatever.  I'm a developer... why would I

want to use some mickey-mouse SDK?  Give me the headers... and a

chroot... and emacs... and a beer!
However, these mickey-mouse SDK's /do/ foster adaptation of the

technology.  There's a whole generation of ADHD Devs who are looking

for some kind of gooey instant gratification.  "Oooo, an Eclipse

plug-in!  Shiny!"
...and there's the fact that LV2 really /is/

just-a-little-too-abstract for your average dev.
So, while the idea of an LV2 SDK disgusts me (personally)... Olivier

is right that it would accelerate developer acceptance.
