Mac users
DO NOT UPGRADE to 10.15 (Catalina) yet!
- When will it be ready?
- I have no way of predicting that precisely, but let's say "some time next year".
- How will I know when it is safe to upgrade to Catalina?
- Keep kJams up to date, and kJams itself will tell you when it is safe
- How can I run kJams today if I have Catalina?
- Get Parallels Desktop, then get the Mojave installer from the app store, then install Mojave
Windows Users
You got nothin' to worry about, since Windows continues to support 32 bit apps, and probably won't stop for a very long time.
After the 64bit transition, you will be automatically upgraded to the 64bit version of kJams.
Sorry for any confusion.

Track what i'm currently working on here
Updates (most recent at top):
- helper person's computer blew up and they lost probably a week :( it's slow going
- the helper is HELPING! It's moving slowly but surely. I expect to have the 64bit version ready to test within a few months!
- Hired a NEW contractor to write the database / data browser (yes!)
- packaged up project and it's now posted on kJams, Freelancer, Guru, Upwork, and Qt Forums
- slowly chipping away at getting the data browser (tracks list / table view) working enough that i can hand it to someone who knows what they're doing
- got the Sources list (tree view) working
- paused the entire shebang so i could switch to Paddle
- we can see the database, but that's it
Hired a contractor to write the database / data browser (yes!)honestly i did most of the work and he was VERY difficult to work with, so he's gone. i need someone else now- Preparing to hire a contractor to write the media player
- have a preliminary Qt project for kJams that correctly loads all the menus with their keyboard shortcuts (both mac and windows) and the main window shell (which does nothing at all) note: those are actual screen shots of the 64bit app!!
- updated all my developer tools to latest (Xcode, "BootCamp" Windows 10, and MSDEV 2017, Qt 5.11.2 for both mac and windows
- upgraded my computer (brand new 2018 MBP)
