First I have to say I dont follow Jack development very closely due to
lack of time. But introducing API functions over time (may they be useful
to some of us, or even necessary) makes the Jack API look like being in
unstable state and prevent developers (thats me) from actually trying it
out.

Just browsing through jack.h I see jack_cpu_load which seems to be
offtopic for jack. Also I cannot find the transport control stuff? And
I cant figure out what the monitor stuff is doing from the
documentation.

Well - I probably need to allocate a day to hack GLAME to support Jack
before LinuxTag...

Richard.
