Jaromír, Do you still think we should keep composite given what Gabriel has said? Should the small number of existing composite users be redirected to hydrogen through a transitional package? Thanks, James On 09/04/17 17:48, diqidoq | MAROQQO wrote: > Hi Gabriel, > > Thanks for taking the

Hi all, I'm the developer of Composite. In my humble opinion, Composite should never have been added to Debian. It was not ready. While it did offer a little bit of useful functionality (the hydrogen drumkits as an LV2 plugin), it overall was the beginnings of a new project, and Debian added it
