Re: [Jack-Devel] stepping down

In the past, I had a vision but my motivation to support the website kind of drowned due to various reasons. Some are similar observations like Paul's, some are related to the complicated situation JACK (as an API AND it's implementations) is in and there is also that damn thing called "life" that keeps happening to me, very distracting. Basically, I realised, that JACK is dead, maybe not yet the software, but as a project and that is frustrating. The more I research about JACK the more tired and sad I get, especially the inevitable aging of the software and so on... the usual stuff that software developers have to deal with. (see attachment for a little smile) That may sound very negative (because I am currently very negative about that) and I am not willing to contribute to JACK (1/2/API tools/homepage and in general) anymore unless someone can provide a positive and realistic vision for the project that is beyond milking the dead cow for another 4 or 5 years. I can check and merge pull requests, communicate and provide help regarding the homepage if someone want's to take over but I won't put significant effort in a website of which I have the feeling nobody cares about and represents a dead project. Well, enough rant and with the disclaimer that this is just from a personal and very limited perspective on things. _______________________________________________ Jack-Devel mailing list Jack-Devel(a)lists.jackaudio.org http://lists.jackaudio.org/listinfo.cgi/jack-devel-jackaudio.org
