Guys, Great to see this brought up here. I've been using Ardour 5.12 for quite a while now, along with recent versions of some of the other packages listed. To be honest I've been a little bit self-centered, checking out and updating packages to my benefit using ABS. So I take this opportunity to volunteer as co-mantainer for ardour, swh-plugins, hydrogen, zita-resampler, qtractor, qjackctl, qsynth, jack2, and jack2-dbus. I know one pre-requisite is to "maintain a few packages in AUR" and I have none. But I can set up some (or at least one package) if this is a hard rule.
