  JM> thank you for uploading.
  JM> I just finished Jconvolver package ... it is lintian clean and ready for upload.
  JM> Now I will try make some performance tests for zita-convolver with sse cflags and without.
  JM> I suspect Jconvolver that it can be quite hungry resource eater (convoltion reverbs usually are) so even 10-15% improvment can be lovely.
  JM> I will inform about my experience.

Sounds good to me.

  JM> Just one other concern ... Should be jconv renamed to jconvolver to not be confusing?
  JM> If so how to do it?

Unless there's a very compelling reason for doing so, I'd rather not
because that would probably require to provide transitional dummy
packages (okay, the package was not in Lenny, so this is not
super-critical, but still nice to do).

Ciao!
