There has been a long-running UDO Repository online but it's currently
down.  I haven't heard anything from Christopher on getting the old
database data; I think I might just populate it with the last dump I
have but it may miss some UDO's that were added after that.  I'll look
at that tonight.

As for modular instruments/effects, Blue has had this for many years
where instruments and effects are completely encapsulated with GUI's
and easily portable between projects (ctrl-c, switch projects,
ctrl-v). The instruments and effects encapsulate any UDO's they depend
on, and Blue itself ensures UDO name clashes do not occur by
auto-renaming UDO's if necessary with generated names.  They are also
protected from versioning by being encapsulated, such that changing an
instrument/effect won't affect its usage in previous projects as they
are all individual copies.
