That's why I wrote "isn't really maintained"..  I am aware that falktx
has taken on the maintainership, and hopefully the future will bring
improvements.

The point was that JACK2 even though it had a maintainer
before falktx was somewhat bit rotting and not getting any real
development, while JACK1 got updates as long as Paul was maintaining
it.

Just thought it was a possibility that profiling was also something not
working properly anymore.

I suppose I should have chosen other words to avoid misunderstanding :)


This seems like FUD. If something isn't working, report it. Few updates doesn't
mean that it's "bit rotting" or "isn't really maintained". If something works
as it should, it doesn't need updates.
