Question: What are your plans for a new version of Jade? I've heard about a Jade 2.0 beta...

Answer:

A Jade 2.0 beta does exist, and it does run on MacOS 10.4 successfully. As beta version software, it has absolutely no updated documentation, and lots of changes.

We had originally planned on releasing Jade 2.0 quite some time ago but were significantly set back several times. One significant set-back, for example, was Apple’s switch to the Intel processor.

At this point development on the 2.0 branch has ceased, and all work on Jade is happening on the 3.0 branch. No release date has been scheduled, determined, or announced.

If you are really eager to leverage the benefits of Jade, most of the architecture of Jade has been made open source via the Jamoma Project. Using Jamoma and Max you can put together a wide variety of performance systems.
