Hello everyone.
Most of you don't know, but after this year LAC Stephane gave me
permission to maintain the JACK2 project.
One thing that was highly requested by users and other developers was to
make a new release.
So I went ahead and made one.
I'm calling this one RC1 because I'm not confident enough to call it a
full new release just yet.
I need to try to get Windows and OSX builds working (hopefully doable
with mingw and osx + waf after the last wscript updates).
If someone wants to volunteer to maintain and take care of those it
would much appreciated.
The website is not updated yet.
Paul Davis will try to get an auto-update hook from github to
jackaudio.org, so we don't have to ask him to update for every little
change...
Hopefully happens this weekend.

I wonder how much work you will put on your shoulders.
Finger tip!

Great news Filipe!
I'm happy that you are the new maintainer.
Regarding the version for the new release, I wonder if it would be better
if the next version was 1.9.12, and not 1.9.11? The reason is that we have
already had a 1.9.11 release for Windows (when you go to jackaudio.org and
download for windows, you find 1.9.11). I've been using 1.9.11, and
included it with Radium, since long before it was officially released. And
it works fine too as far as I know.
Another thing. Regarding the versioning type on OSX. Maybe it would be a
good idea to use the same versioning as for Linux and Windows? I don't know
the reason for using 0.9x instead of 1.9.x on OSX though.

Just to be clear, Stephane did a very good job too of course.
The reason is that we have already had a 1.9.11

Also, the last OSX release is placed under a "1.9.11" directory, so I guess
that one is a 1.9.11 release as well.

The latest JackOSX 0.93 package was indeed based on jackd 1.9.11. Having a same numbering
for OS X stuff would certainly help. The hard part is to create this OS X specific package
again.

Hi,
i'm just thinking out loud for releases -
Hand-crafting a release for OS X or Windows sounds like serious magic for
most people while for Linux it's relatively straight forward.
If there would be a release process that's doing all the hard work
automatically, a new release wouldn't bind resources that are more
valuable to invest in other aspects. There wouldn't be -RC releases and
found to be good binaries would be just a specific release out of a
(RC-style release) series.
IMO the Ardour project is a good example of how to handle releases. They
manage to automatically create binaries (in several variations) for Linux,
OS X and Windows on a daily basis.
While the JACK codebase won't change on a daily basis, the release process
can be handy nonetheless. I wondered if some of the Ardour build
infrastructure could be re-used for JACK? Like surfing on the same wave.
Robin could do it i'm sure - I'm wondering if this is looked at as a
reasonable proposal. I'm sure we'd find community members to sponsor the
needed initial work in some way to people who can do it.
Any thoughts?
Best regards
Thomas

Indeed.
Thank you very much for jack2 and all the work over the years, Stephane!
As long time jack2/jackdbus user I appreciate it very much.
Cheers!

Sounds like a good idea actually.
Let's sort out the Windows and OSX builds and then call it 1.9.12.
For the Windows builds, it should be possible to build the jack2 code
with waf and mingw, other have mentioned it but I never tried it myself.
My mingw build is quite old, I will have to update it first.
If you succeed on this before me, let me know.
OSX builds sound more the tricky one.
I think it's better to get a working Windows build first. Then focus on OSX.

I'm using a fairly updated mingw from mxe.cc as cross-compiler.
Haven't tried to run it though, but it compiles.

I'm already maintaining the qjackctl releases for windows, at least it's
my
build that's included in the latest jack for windows. It might not be so
much work to create binary releases for windows, but I don't want to take
on too much work. If we are able to cross-compile jack on windows under
linux (which shouldn't be a problem), I guess it would be natural for me to
make releases, and to a certain degree maintain it (although I don't know
so much about the jack codebase), so that both qjackctl and jack are in
sync on windows.
