And what if there is no real objection towards NSM from within the 
community and what if the JS devs tell you that they have no time or 
motivation to really develop or stimulate development of JackSession? 
Isn't is possible then that the community more or less decides that one 
option is better then the other?
Or is someone else willing to maintain JackSession from now on?

NSM doesn't depend on JACK, how bad is that really? At least one benefit 
seems to be that apps like non-mixer are also supported now. And even 
apps without JACK support, (all though I can't find a situation at this 
moment in time where this can be useful).

In my view all depends on the vision of the LAD community. I just tried 
NSM yesterday, but what if it's the best solution overall? That's 
possible right, that someone suddenly comes up with the best solution so 
far. If NSM is that best solution, we might go for it. Otherwise we have 
to think about keeping JackSession alive.

Harry, maybe it's good to give NSM a shot and/ or to comment on the API.
