The JACK MIDI code was contribued (by me) while H2 was on a 
feature freeze before 0.9.4.  It was placed on the 
"jackMidi" branch.  After being unfrozen, it wasn't 
considered a priority branch.

The branch has been lightly tested, and had regular merges 
with trunk (leading up to the 0.9.4 release).  There are two 
known issues:

   1. MIDI record is totally broken.

   2. IIRC, the notes are scheduled for frame 0 of
      the current process cycle... basically ignoring
      the frame number.  Long story why.  Also,
      I seem to recall doing something to fix that...
      but I'm not sure.

HTH,
