Season greetings y'all,
The news are just about this first batch of so called 'QStuff*', now
being rolled out, seriously: QjackCtl [1], Qsynth [2], Qsampler [3],
QXGEdit [4], QmidiCtl [5] and QmidiNet [6], all jumping straight and
gloriously to **version 0.9.0** for the (northern) Winter'20 Holiday season.
** QjackCtl - JACK Audio Connection Kit Qt GUI Interface [1] **
QjackCtl 0.9.0 (winter'20) is released!
QjackCtl is a(n ageing yet modern, not so 'simple' anymore) Qt [7]
application to control the JACK [8] sound server, for the Linux Audio
[12] infrastructure.

Change-log:
- List only available backend drivers when JACK D-BUS is enabled.
- Graph client-name / node-title aliases persistence have been hopefully
fixed.
- Get rid of those "JACK has crashed" red-herrings from latest
Windows(tm) builds.
- Early fixing to build for Qt >= 6.0.0 and comply with C++17 standard.
** Qsynth - A fluidsynth Qt GUI Interface [2] **
Qsynth 0.9.0 (winter'20) is released!
Qsynth is a FluidSynth [10] GUI front-end application written in C++
around the Qt framework [7] using Qt Designer.

** QXGEdit - A Qt XG Editor [4] **
QXGEdit 0.9.0 (winter'20) is released!
QXGEdit is a live XG instrument editor, specialized on editing MIDI
System Exclusive files (.syx) for the Yamaha DB50XG [14] and thus
probably a baseline for many other XG devices.

** QmidiCtl - A MIDI Remote Controller via UDP/IP Multicast [5] **
QmidiCtl 0.9.0 (winter'20) is released!
QmidiCtl [5] is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI
data over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast
[15] and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI [15] for Windows.
QmidiCtl [5] was long ago designed for the Maemo [17] enabled handheld
devices, namely the late Nokia N900 [18] and promoted to the Maemo
Package [18] repositories. Nevertheless, QmidiCtl [5] may still be found
effective as a regular desktop application and recently as an Android
application as well.
