If they have been developing to that standard it is likely they will stick to it. Reaper isn't necessarily even on their radar. Since Reaper requires a paid license, despite how inexpensive it is, well you know how it is with FLOSS people. I've even noticed discussions where some people are annoyed that Steinberg is even attached to VST.
I wouldn't expect a developer trying to sell plugins as LV2. However those plugins still exist and they are still being made.
