Dont want to sound disrespectful, but I need to ask.

Who are the experts that will be using Jack.

I havent been on an audio related usergroup where anything positive has 
been said (except largely what I posted) about jack. By large 95% of 
users complain about jack.

If I can find some of these experts it will go a long way to figure out 
how to actually use it in reality. But I found none on the 10s of 
usergroups related to audio that I subscribe to. It is always complaints 
about jack. I myself have been using Linux since 97 and did a lot of 
unix and assembler programming before 97.
I wrote some of the most complex numerical software on Linux for 
clusters. I am well educated with three postgraduate degrees one of 
which is numerical methods. Audio has been a lifelong interest, and 
still is semi-professionally as I have been a performing musician my 
entire life.

If I cannot make sense of it and become an "expert" who will unless they 
have special information. Do the expert study the coded, basically 
become a developer. ?

With software, a lack of proper specification and scriptable advice, 
leads to no one being able to come to grips unless they go study the 
code - even if the application is dead simple. I dont want to do that 
and shouldnt need to as just need to be a user in this case that wants 
to become an expert if possible.
