--- Comment #15 from Be <be.0@xxxxxxx> ---
If users should start new sessions with Arduour 4, then I think this package
should be called 'ardour' and the current 'ardour' (2) should be renamed
'ardour2' if kept in Fedora. Users are going to expect the latest version of
ardour to be installed when they install the package called 'ardour'. When I
first tried Ardour around a year ago, I thought Ardour 2 was the latest version
for a while until I explored the Ardour website and realized there was a
separate package in Fedora called 'ardour3'.

Is it really necessary to retain Ardour 2 and 3 in Fedora anyway? Because
Ardour 4 was released recently, retaining Ardour 3 would make sense because
users are fairly likely to have Ardour 3 sessions that they want to work with.
Are there many users who still actively work on Ardour 2 sessions? Is it worth
having this awkward package naming situation to retain backwards compatibility
with software that has been outdated for years? To me, that doesn't seem very
well in line with Fedora's foundation value of "First".
