Sugar Bytes had to pull it because they never submitted it to Avid for approval, which would be a violation of their license. Whether or not any wrappers will be allowed down the road is hard to say. I could imagine Avid would want to hold off on wrappers to get as many of their developers to adopt AAX as possible. I wouldn't hold my breath. 'Sugar Bytes are outstanding developers who are bringing great-sounding plug-ins to market including AAX plug-ins. The Avid plug-in developer agreement that developers sign is for plug-ins that can be used with Pro Tools and other Avid products.
TransVST is a plugin wrapper, which transforms VST plugins into AAX Plugins.
With TransVST, you can use VST Plugins in Pro Tools 10 and higher.
TransVST runs as a standalone program which offers a luxurious plugin management and integrates any VST plugin in Pro Tools, so that it can be used as a normal AAX plugin. TransVST is already 64bit compatible and so it´s ready for future Pro Tools versions. Furthermore, TransVST supports creative plugin functions like Midi Out, Sidechaining and Multi Outputs.
TransVST has just been released for Mac and PC and costs €69,- / $89,-.
