most of the 2.X->3.0 commit (up to rev 4299) except for gtk2_ardour/editor_canvas.cc; builds and runs and does a few specific things but expect it to be buggy for a while yet

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio 
+workstation (DAW).
+It is capable of simultaneous recording 24 or more channels of 32 bit audio at
+48kHz.
+Ardour is intended to function as a "professional" HDR system, replacing
+dedicated hardware solutions such as the Mackie HDR, the Tascam 2424 and more
+traditional tape systems like the Alesis ADAT series.
+It is also intended to provide the same or better functionality as software 
+systems such as ProTools, Samplitude, Logic Audio, Nuendo and Cubase VST (we 
+acknowledge these and all other names as trademarks of their respective 
+owners).
+It supports MIDI Machine Control, and so can be controlled from any MMC
+controller, such as the Mackie Digital 8 Bus mixer and many other modern
+digital mixers.
