I don't recall reading anything that says that Steinberg's VST specification has been updated to include MIDI 2 messages either.
Steinberg have made it clear that they will not be including MIDI messages in VST3. They expect DAW hosts to translate messages between MIDI and VST instruments.
I am disappointed in the OS vendors who have still not released class compliant drivers, despite the MIDI 2 USB spec being complete for almost a year now.
There is, for instance, no MIDI 2 file specification.
This is a big issue and I hope the MMA/AMEI release it soon.
