Ohh, sorry, I
got the impression it was not ready. I don't mind being
wrong in that.
may i kindly ask what gave you that impression ?

decisions on the 'final' netjack version":

but the lan use-case it pretty trivial and doesnt need

Ok.
if you just want to build a network soundcard, and use
jack on a
computer with that, its ready for 3 years now !!!
Great, good news.
having more than one network soundcard, and keeping
stuff in sync is
more tricky. it requires that you can control the wordclock on that
soundcard, and you need a special version of alsa_out.c
which instead of resampling controls the wordclock frequency.
Ok. let's start with ONE slave then. When that is working, then it's
time for the sync part.
So, this means that most of software part is more or less ready.
We have OSC for control and netjack for transport.
That means that I will forget about the software till I have some hw
to test on.
