Hey, great, then you're on top of it already!
If the website:
- Lists all the major features of HISE that give it parity with Kontakt as well as those that make it superior
- Offers a download button for the latest .exe, which is really just a step less than getting it from GitHub, but still a major point for a lot of people, unfortunately
- Links to a couple of videos, one of them being this one and the other being the big course I linked to in my previous post (which you'll know better than me whether it's a good overall jumpstarter for HISE)
- Has clear licencing information and clears up what releasing under GPLv3 means, with the ability to purchase a commercial license immediately, like JUCE on their website,
then the whole VI landscape changes overnight. The fact that this can all be done in an afternoon is what makes it all rather silly, given how competent the development seems to be, especially for a one-man show (with the help of the other contributors, of course).
You already said it's almost ready to go so you've got it, I'm just leaving my thoughts here in case you find anything here useful. The onboarding heavy lifting seems to already be done by David and the whole thing looks like it's ready for mass adoption.
We're all just waiting for the 8am doors and lights, and the floor speakers to start playing music.
i was had to overthink that too when i read this a few days ago.
