Hi Josh, a late reply to your mail -

yes, indeed we need a router for modern macOS APIs. It would allow to 
use (again) JackRouter as « Audio default device » to take full 
advantage of jackd.

For reference this was discussed before in this thread 
https://jackaudio.github.io/mailing_list_archive/index.html#1517493624.1212_0.ltw:2,

The "problem" with new Apple APIs for a router is described compact in
https://jackaudio.github.io/mailing_list_archive/mail/1517568080.2817_0.ltw:2,/index.html

What's needed to convince you to have a look? It's not a simple task and 
eventually being able to compile it without a dependency on XCode 
environment would be a bonus. Are you still in the loop?

Thanks,
Thomas
