Remove example-clients and tools
dvzrv opened this issue · 4 comments
As the example-clients and tools are now tracked in https://github.com/jackaudio/jack-example-tools/ and can be built against jack1 and jack2 (see jackaudio/jack-example-tools#8), they should be removed from jack1, so that it will become easier for users to switch between the different implementations of jack in the future, while using the same tooling (ideally).
This should coincide nicely with a new jack1 release.
If doing a new one, I would push to get jackdbus working too.
There is a patch but it needs to be reformatted.
It doesn't all have to be in one release :)
In #112 we now track the removal of the files in a PR.
IMHO the PR should only be merged after a new release of jack1 has been made, incorporating the changes mentioned in #108 so that jack-example-tools can be built without issue.
The changes should then be released in an additional release, to have a clear migration path for downstreams.
There is no downstream that still uses jack1 afaik, so this is quite safe to go for.
Even BSD has now moved to jack2.
