Hi Scott, Richard,

My altPluginsToolbar
http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/altPluginCover/about.htm

could be easily modified to support plugin management, along with 
self-updating plugins. I believe Richard said something about waiting 
for the next rev of the engine to start 'pluging-in' the MC IDE.

I'd be more than happy to contribute.

Currently, I don't use MC at all (though I am/was a licensee). But, 
after talking a bunch w/ Richard, Jacque and Ken, I'm thinking once the 
new engine licensing is in place, I would consider moving over. 
Especially now that there are going to be plugins available for it.

In fact, been talking w/ Jerry Daniels about perhaps coming out west for 
a revDevCon at FourthWorld this summer. Maybe we can get a bunch of us 
to meet in LA for a weekend of trick swapping! Anyone else interested?

best,

Chipp
