Hi all
After almost a year not having announced version 2.0 of netpd, version 2.1 is released now. netpd 2.x is complete rewrite of the netpd that you may have known from several years ago.
netpd - a Collaborative Realtime Networked Music Making Environment
netpd allows many users to have a realtime jam sessions with each other, connected over the net. Users might contribute their own netpd-ized patches a.k.a. instruments or use pre-existing ones. The set of patches, as well as the state of each is synchronized between clients in order to provide identical experience for every connected user.
netpd was designed with music in mind, but it might serve well also other purposes, where realtime state synchronization is a requirement.
release notes
2.1
- Improved reliability of finding a sync peer (breaks compatibility with v2.0)
- Added non-blocking until [netpd-nb-until]
- Turning DSP off on dynamic creation is now a configurable option (see chat's preferences)
- Prevent errors when checking for non-existing files (adds more dependencies, though)
- Automatically load unpatch by cmdline option (useful for -nogui)
- Turn on/off printing of all incoming and outgoing OSC message with cmdline option
- Turn on/off state messages for testing and debugging with cmdline option
2.0
- Complete rewrite
- Messaging layer based on OSC
- Consequent use of namespaces
- Improved and more reliable state synchronization
- Faster patch synchronization
- More intelligent dependency resolving
- Multiple instances of the same instrument
- Non-blocking network layer (less audio drop-outs)
- Lots of bugfixes
Have fun! Roman

This is fantastic news!
I can't wait to try it the new version! Are the jams happening Thursday 21:00 GMT as mentioned on the website?

There is currently no active community. Thus, there haven't been any regular sessions recently. Of course, I'd love to revive the weekly sessions, if there is any interest and I would definitely try to participate.
Community-wise, the project has been sleeping for several years. I hope to be able to spark some interest again so that users are likely to meet other users from all over the world to have a jam with them.
There will be a short workshop/intro followed by a jam:
time: Tuesday 2nd of April, 19pm - ?? GMT location: VMK (Zurich University of the Arts), Sihlquai 131
Anyone interested is invited to join. Expect the session to start at 20pm GMT.

This is really amazing! Thanks a lot!
