As mentioned elsewhere
<https://discourse.ardour.org/t/last-call-for-ardour-6-7/105763/14> we=E2=
=80=99re
getting read to release version 6.7, which will be the last version
compatible with older platforms: Windows (XP), macOS (Snow Leopard) and
Linux systems built with gcc4.

Things are just about ready to go, but there have been some fairly radical
changes in the last week to some parts of the code. We=E2=80=99re already f=
airly
confident that things are still working correctly, but we=E2=80=99d appreci=
ate some
more testing - this will be the last version for these old platforms and it
would be nice to make sure it=E2=80=99s as solid as we can make it.

So please consider downloading from the nightly website
<https://nightly.ardour.org/> and give that version a spin with whatever
your workflow tends to be. We=E2=80=99re particularly interested in making =
sure
that all aspects of transport control are working correctly. That includes
syncing with LTC and MTC/MMC and JACK Transport.

Positive feedback will be as valuable here as negative. We=E2=80=99re not l=
ooking
for reports on new bugs per se (though those are always welcome over on the
bug tracker <https://tracker.ardour.org/> ). We=E2=80=99d just like to be s=
ure that
none of the recent changes have broken stuff before we move on towards the
future.

Remember that you can parallel install builds from ardour.org with each
other, and with any Linux-distro provided versions of the program. They
will not interfere with each other.

thanks,

Ardour team
