the thing that makes NSM so "JACK-friendly" is only about one separate
utility/client program called "jackpatch"... nothing else technically
relates NSM to JACK and vice-versa.
real honest, I don't see a "why not" answer from your reply here.
the biggest thing that sorta binds NSM and JACK together is people right
now using them together.
and afaik NSM being clearly made with that purpose in mind.
allowing to be used on non-jack setups is a bonus of its good design, I
would dare say a side-effect rather than the target.
please
read the subject line!
it's about the new-session-management move to jackaudio.org and only.
it is NOT about the merits, technical or otherwise, of session
managers in general nor NSM in particular.
Then let me rephrase:
Why should NSM not be hosted under jackaudio, since it is the session
manager for JACK programs?
The response to that was "because NSM is technically independent of
JACK" and my answer was in the previous mail.
