The Ubuntu Studio project has been in close contact with the Ardour team. Paul Davis would rather us not package a beta release.
Paul has said Ardour 2 is close to being finished. (around the end of the year) Universe freeze is February 7th so I think its a very good chance that we will see Ardour 2 Final in Ubuntu. -- Ardour 2 is (nearly) finished https://launchpad.net/bugs/73900 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
