I felt I was a little too critical about their relationship to JACK, so I'm glad to hear it matters to them. Alas, I'm no coder, so I can't help directly. OTOH I would like to see the Linux version of LMMS get it together. It's a very promising application, but IMO it should address its audio problems before all else. Prettifying its UI ought to be a secondary consideration until reliable audio stability is achieved.
