Because you don't just have to test the new plug-in with the latest version of Media Composer, you have to also test it with previous version so that us users can know if it's going to be compatible. So it's up to the vendor to do the testing. Like when you buy BCC or other effects packages, it's up to the vendor to know that they work and to support them.

What would work best is if the vendor would provide a address to link to that would always forward to the latest plug-in, but… well… that would make sense.
