Here's a good summary:

   http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2010-April/134723.html

By now, Debian, Ubuntu and OpenSuse are already in, Fedora is still
undecided.

So yes, it's true, I've asked all the major distributions to switch to
jackd2, so users have the same feature set no matter which distro they
use.

Also note that there's no (easy) way back, we're entirely switching to
jackd2, that is, the user won't have the possibility to select jackd1
instead.
