I'm rather busy at the moment, so I could use some help ;) I just
started to import the upstream code and the 64studio package based on
nedko's work.

The package needs some larger modifications:

   * libjack0.100* should be dropped
   * IEEE 1394 backends should be in a separate package
   * template for RT POSIX configuration is missing
   * the usual housekeeping (multiline fields, control, and so on)


Whoever is interested in jackd2 in Debian, please go ahead and change
the package according to your needs. This is work in progress, but I'm
optimistic so have a decent jackd2 package, soon.

I also suggest to simplify the package layout, that is, no
libjackserver, libjackserver-bin and the lot. libjack-dev, libjack(1),
jackd and jackd-firewire should be enough, perhaps another jackdbus.

Please refer to the existing jack1 repo to avoid discrepancies between
the two packages, especially wrt realtime prios and templates.
