Greetings!

The old core of QStuff*, QjackCtl [1], Qsynth [2], Qsampler [3], QXGEdit
[4], QmidiCtl [5] and QmidiNet [6], are all here and now bumped to
**version 0.6.1**, making it the first batch for the last (northern)
winter solistice of the decade.

So here they go...


** QjackCtl - JACK Audio Connection Kit Qt GUI Interface [1] **

  QjackCtl 0.6.1 (winter'19) released!

QjackCtl is a(n ageing yet modern, not so 'simple' anymore) Qt [7]
application to control the JACK [8] sound server, for the Linux Audio
[12] infrastructure.

Change-log:1
- Custom color (palette) theme editor introduced; color (palette) theme
changes are now effective immediately, except on default.
- Second attempt to fix the yet non-official though CMake build
configuration.
- When using autotools and ./configure --with-qt=..., it is also
necessary to adjust the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable (after a
merge request by plcl aka. Pedro López-Cabanillas, while on qmidinet
[6], thanks).

  QmidiCtl 0.6.1 (winter'19) released!

QmidiCtl [5] is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI
data over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast
[15] and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI [15] for Windows.
QmidiCtl [5] was long ago designed for the Maemo [17] enabled handheld
devices, namely the late Nokia N900 [18] and promoted to the Maemo
Package [18] repositories. Nevertheless, QmidiCtl [5] may still be found
effective as a regular desktop application and recently as an Android
application as well.
