[LAD] [ANN] QjackCtl 0.3.13, Qsynth 0.3.9, Qsampler 0.3.0 released!

[Hermann Meyer]

Many thanks for Qjackctl, it's still my base application :-)

Just, a simple note about the last update. I love to have Qjackctl on 
the right upper corner of my screen, or sit in the systray, and usually, 
when I move it to there, after start it, it appears there, when ever I 
pop it up from the systray.  Now, after I've checked out the last git, 
it pops up at the left upper corner, when ever I recall it from the 
systray. The connection widget is still in place, right side, were I 
expect it, or were I used it last time.
