Afaik it went through three pairs of hands since it exists, and now we have a fork that I think won't be the solution either, mainly because it can't restore the clients internal state and needs dbus enabled jack, which is either a patched jack1 or jack2, both having it's share of problems. > Would be better if more people will help to develop a Lash kind of > thing. > > \r Yep, I think so, but it would need to be used by high profile apps like ardour and a bunch of others to encourage application developers to integrate it in their apps as well.
