Great to know there was a talk about Arch pro-audio in LAC! I think there is a lot of information there that you can add to the wiki. I did a rewrite once but as Ralf said, rewriting again can be quite difficult. Yeah, there will be even another this year, but mainly on Arch Linux ARM on Raspberry Pi 3 (for teaching sound synthesis using the jack API and C++) this time.
Ralf, David, and anyone else invested in pro-audio now -- let me hijack this thread a bit: Can you guys have a look at https://linuxmusicians.com/ viewtopic.php?f=4&t=17034 and see if you're interested in taking over the ArchAudio project? Thanks. Sounds great. Before the beginning of July I don't have much time though, as I'm in the same boat you were in (thesis and all that madness).
On the plus side: I have been using Arch for about 10 years now and it would be nice to get a little more into packaging (aside from the AUR) and signing. I don't see myself going to use another distro for audio in the future, so I'd be happy to revive it somehow. Guess Ralf might also be interested (from reading a lot about real-time kernels in his mails)?! Well, you got my contact. Best, David -- https://sleepmap.de
