editWhat about a reference to the GNU/Linux high performance audio server jackd?
- what about it? it is what jack himself would call a coincidence.
Expand biography
editCan more information be found about his early life? Does he have any siblings? How did he do at school (one of those school websites states he didn't enjoy it there)? What was his ambition in life? I believe the personal biography should be moved back above the career section once it is fleshed out some more. 84.92.93.58 19:35, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Alcoholism
editDo recovering alcoholics/ former alcoholics, including him, qualify for the people with alcoholism category? F W Nietzsche (talk) 23:08, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
"He also spent a few years trying to land the prestigious role of Ronald McDonald, but ultimately was unsuccessful."
Seems incredibly unlikely, no source is given, and it's not even obvious what it means to have the role of Ronald McDonald. 94.174.36.122 (talk) 20:43, 30 November 2013 (UTC) Alex
