Yup, that's true:

   QjackCtl 0.4.1 (fall'15) is out!

QjackCtl [1] is a(n ageing but still) simple Qt [3] application to 
control the JACK [2] sound server, for the Linux Audio [4] infrastructure.

License:
   QjackCtl [1] is free, open-source Linux Audio [4] software, 
distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL [5]) 
version 2 or later.


 From the footnote department: for quite some time there's an alternate 
github.com repository [6] which is kept in sync with the sf.net one [7]. 
However, this doesn't mean that the QjackCtl project is about to migrate 
to a brand new hosting whatsoever: the original upstream source code 
repository is, will be, as ever was, always kept somewhere else still in 
this world and universe.
