Ardour hits testing finally, a RT kernel wishlist bug with patch is filed, people are working on LV2 etc. Here you can find more information about maintaining multimedia packages for Debian/ Ubuntu and joining the Debian Multimedia Team and/ or the Ubuntu MOTUMedia team. http://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=817 I suggest add a 'chapter' in the wiki of linuxaudio.org with information about maintaining packages. The information about Debian/Ubuntu you can find in my link. But I can imagine that also other distro's like to write down some information about maintaining multimedia packages, cause it would be nice if we could improve GNU/ Linux audio by getting more packages into the different distro's. Please take some action here.
