Not at all

IIRC the main reason this was not yet uploaded is that the source files don't
have licensing information - the README specifies the license for the whole
package. While strictly spoken this might be legally sufficient, it's highly 
recommended to have licensing information in the source files, to avoid any 
confusion.

I submitted patches that add the licensing information to the source files
to upstream on various occasions. I always get a polite reply, but none of 
them have been applied...

We probably should give up on that and move on. I think there are a couple of 
commits upstream ( http://slavepianos.org/rd/r/d/darcsweb.cgi?r=jack.* ) that
haven't made it into our git yet.
