Guys, Great to see this brought up here. I've been using Ardour 5.12 for quite a while now, along with recent versions of some of the other packages listed. To be honest I've been a little bit self-centered, checking out and updating packages to my benefit using ABS. So I take this opportunity to volunteer as co-mantainer for ardour, swh-plugins, hydrogen, zita-resampler, qtractor, qjackctl, qsynth, jack2, and jack2-dbus. I know one pre-requisite is to "maintain a few packages in AUR" and I have none. But I can set up some (or at least one package) if this is a hard rule.

It is NOT true that there is no pro-audio community. ArchAudio was just inactive because nobody stepped up to take over maintenance from me. It had a fully functioning website, forums, mailing list, and partially functioning packaging machine (I couldn't keep up the CentOS machine with the Arch changes). The admin Jon Kristian even was willing to spare the necessary infrastructure (he got a new Arch machine for us). People seemed to not want such a platform and advocated the AUR as being sufficient (see also LinuxMusicians forums). So if there's renewed interest, I can contact Jon again for a revival.
Hi,
I was interested to take over Arch audio, but due to an awkward duty roster I had and still have got no time to do it. I should have got enough time to moderate an audio mailing list, but without having experiences with (mailman) administration.
