Aperture 2.0 to get third party extensibility?

Aperture outputAperture users everywhere, rejoice! Apple has sneaked in a great feature in the latest version of its premier image-management and enhancement application. David Schloss, of the Aperture Users Professional Network, brings us word that Aperture 2.0 includes support for third party editing plugins.

This is good news in terms of what Aperture holds for the future—kind of in the same vein as the introduction of Core Animation before Leopard’s launch, the only difference being that Apple chose not to advertise the former.

As soon as Apple makes it clear how to create plugins for the application (or even before that), we can hopefully look forward to third parties developing a host of amazing plugins that take the editing capabilities of the application to new heights. Now, all you have to do is pray for Apple to release the details before late February, 2011.
