+    There is not a whole lot of new exciting stuff this time around, as most of the time was spent on Carla new features and bug-fixing.<br/>
+    I am doing a push towards CV support in Carla (a "MIDI to CV" internal plugin was added, for example),<br/>
     with only 1 new feature to be implemented - allowing to automate any regular parameter with CV.<br/>
-    The idea is to make it easier to automate things in carla, by exposing individual parameters in the patchbay as CV ports.<br/>
-    There is only 1 month left for release, so going to be tight on time, but seems doable, specially with holidays coming.<br/>

     (so more free time to work on this)

     A new small extra repository has been created, one I have been using for some time now.<br/>
-    This came out of the necessity to update JACK2, but JACK is not something we can distribute in generic packages like applications and plugins.<br/>
-    There are a few pieces of software, like JACK2, that cannot be made into generic deb packages.<br/>
-    So, I want to create a few small but nice repositories for basic utilities and nice-to-have things.
-    For now, I have created a small one for Ubuntu 18.04 users (which includes me, obviously :P) that contains an updated JACK2, Wine-RT, among other small things.<br/>

+    So, I want to create a few small but nice repositories for basic utilities and nice-to-have things.<br/>
+    For now, I have created a first, small one for Ubuntu 18.04 users (which includes me, obviously :P) which contains an updated JACK2, Wine-RT, among other small things.<br/>
+    You can find more details about this repository and all future ones coming soon at

+      <a href="https://jackaudio.org/news/" target="_blank">has its own news page</a>
+    now, so I won't be posting JACK2 related stuff here anymore.<br/>
+    The latest about it, which is worth mentioning, is that its mailing list is back online once again! \o/

+    <a href="https://github.com/falkTX/Cadence/releases/tag/v0.9.1" target="_blank">Cadence v0.9.1</a> was released, just tagging it in its git repo so distributions can pick it up.<br/>
+    It was mostly needed due to an incompatibility with Python 3.8.
+</p>
+<p>
+    And finally, donations for the KXStudio project (basically myself) are open once again, now even with a Patreon page.<br/>
+    In the past I mentioned that, due to legal costs, it was not worth having them while in Germany and I would open them again once I moved.<br/>
+    That happened a few months ago, but I dislike dealing with these things, so it took some time...<br/>
+    They are open once again now, though I removed the PayPal subscription option and counter for now.<br/>
+    (I am intentionally not posting the link here, I trust that if you care enough, you know where to find it)
+</p>
+<p>
+    Next month hopefully a new Carla release will be here.<br/>
+    Catia will be made into a standalone project, leaving Cadence behind. But that is news for another time... :)
