[LAD] Guitarix 0.28.0 released

The Guitarix developers proudly present

Guitarix release 0.28.0 "magic chainsaw trick" *)

Yes, we took a chainsaw, cut through the chest of Guitarix,
and... it's still alive. But now it's also 2 pieces. You can
start it (headless) on an embedded ARM system. You can start
it on your laptop and connect the user interface the the headless
instance. You can even tap on your smartphone and control
Guitarix with the web browser (or just use the tuner).

For the uninitiated, Guitarix is a tube amplifier simulation for
jack, with effect modules and an additional stereo effect chain.
