<span style="font-size: 20px">&gt; KXStudio Monthly Report (November 2020)</span><br/>

<p>
Hello all, another "monthly" report about the KXStudio project is here.<br/>
There has not been once since July and even though there are not many new details to share, I did not want to let another month pass without one.
</p>
<p>
The main reason for the delay on writing is that my attention has been mostly focused on getting the
<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/modduo/mod-dwarf" target="_blank">
MOD Dwarf
</a>
software all ready for release, including new LV2 features on the MOD software stack.<br/>
This usually does not affect me working on other open-source stuff, but the race to get everything ready on time drains more energy than usual.<br/>
In order to not stress myself out, progress on other fronts has been a bit slower, though stuff like Carla 2.2 final release still happened.<br/>
Some of this MOD work involved understanding the LV2 spec better and fixing or making new test plugins, so this will be useful outside the MOD platform too.<br/>
(I already learned that the way Carla handles some LV2 features is wrong and started some work towards fixing that)
</p>
<p>
Last month (October 2020) marks
<a href="https://jackaudio.org/news/2020/10/15/jack2-v1915-release-and-current-status.html" target="_blank">
the first release of JACK2
</a>
with me as maintainer that provides
<a href="https://jackaudio.org/downloads/" target="_blank">
macOS and Windows binaries</a>.<br/>
I have been setting up automated builds for a few open-source projects for a bit of time now, and that is now re-used for JACK2.<br/>
There is progress to make this usable for cross-platform plugins, which I was hoping to have a release for by now, but the travis-ci is having some issues against homebrew...<br/>
Whenever that works again, I will make the official announcement of that
<a href="https://github.com/DISTRHO/PawPaw" target="_blank">
new project</a>.<br/>
Later on this will be used for automating the builds of my PyQt projects like Carla and Catia.
</p>
<p>
On the Cadence project, I began the work for splitting it into smaller, easier to maintain projects.<br/>
The idea is to allow Catia (the patchbay-only application) and the small tools to be packaged and maintained separately.<br/>
This will allow to have new releases of Catia, Cadence and its tools all separately.<br/>
There is only 1 nasty bug to fix in Catia use of JACK2 meta-data before an official release is made, but it is not an easy one, so I am leaving it for later.<br/>
Likely no public release on this until next year.
</p>
<p>
And that is it for now.<br/>
Usually I would write about the KXStudio repositories package update list, but there really has not been much happening there at all..<br/>
Christmas holidays are not too far off, which will bring some time to try to get a few more things out.<br/>
So expect some proper news again after that.
</p>
