Does anybody have experience using it?

Yes. I've used it for a whole day now, on Linux Mint 20.1 Ulyssa base
(Ubuntu 20.04 focal). Everything seems to just work.
Yes, the project is making huge progress. Also thanks to the many early
adopters filing helpful issue reports. Wim and his team address them at
incredible speed.
I may have to do one of those. I think James Szinger's prediction [1]
is accurate, although, while I am confused I am not yet "wailing".
He says the proposal "does not mention any native tools.", by which
he may mean the jack-tools package itself, which is the source of my
partially working jack_transport (I use it most days via a QProcess).
If you use it, be prepared to live on the bleeding
edge, e.g. until last
week pipewire didn't set realtime permissions correctly, and the week
before had a crashing bug with Ardour querying ports when 3rd party apps
are involved. Fixed now.
So update early, update often
I think I read that the PPA is updated every fifteen days, so I'll be
a bit behind the sharpest edge.
