Agreed as well. But you can take that that in several different ways: you can simply conform to the standard, but you can also try to use an adapter to an open, non-proprietary protocol. And of course the perspective is different for Cockos as producers of REAPER, for happy REAPER users, for happy EuCon / HUI control surface users wondering about other DAWs, and the producers of such controllers.

In this case, from my perspective, I'm more interested in - for example - an EuCon <--> OSC bridge, than in having native EuCon support. That would increase the chance of me buying a EuCon controller, anyway.
