Hey all Ardour 3.x is a distinct branch of the popular free digital audio workstation, which met its first stable release on March 10, 2013. In order to respect the lead developer's wish that all users download his software from his website, [1][2] I had chosen to defer packaging it for our community for at least 7 days (not that there has been much demand). Anyway, ardour3 will just roll in as ardour with a version bump, while the existing ardour will be relegated to an ardour2 package (they should be able to co-exist). An upstream-friendly message to donate will be included. It is not mandatory (software is GPL after all), but it's just one way of respecting their wishes. Let me know if there is a problem anywhere. If you think we shouldn't even be distributing it, let it be known (in which case we only retain ardour2). I know of no other _binary_ distribution that has packaged ardour3 already, but I may be wrong. As far as I'm aware, we're a meta-distribution -- we don't break things.
