That sounds good!

Windows and OSX testing: wouldn't it be easy if Windows and OSX users
could get a "nightly" build of bleeding edge JACK2 to actually test it? If
that would happen it would be safer to assume that merged PRs will not
pose any problems on these platforms when the effective release takes
place.
Having a continuous build system would also help to not have peaks for big
releases, they would "just" be on out of a linear series.
Ardour switched to this kind of build system some time ago (others already
have it) and after the inital work i'm practically sure it would help the
mid- to longterm development of JACK. Let me know it this is BS :)
