HOW TO IMPROVE JACK

Kernel changes

• deterministic scheduling
• capabilities enabled by default
• fast IPC (futexes/doors)
• reduce interrupt blocking

JACK changes

• handling other data types (MIDI, video)
• dynamically increase number of ports
• fix remaining buglets

Ports

• Mac OS X port already running (Stephane Letz/GRAME)
  • provides inter-app communication (CoreAudio does not)
• no Windows port activity known (probably use ASIO)

GUI Toolkit Changes

• make them interoperable: JACK goes away?
