may i kindly ask what gave you that impression ?
i admit that some jack versions in svn were broken for the LAN use-case
because i am focussing on making it work for wireless and
transcontinental internet connections.

but the lan use-case it pretty trivial and doesnt need all this deadline
machinery.

if you just want to build a network soundcard, and use jack on a
computer with that, its ready for 3 years now !!!

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.
