The API is explained on this website: http://non.tuxfamily.org/nsm/API.html
Developers can build patches for their software to support NSM, as they

can do for JS and Ladish. At the moment only non-daw, non-seq, non-mixer

and yoshimi (patch available).
Atm their are more applications with JS support (Ladish supports ladi,

JS and NSM): http://tangostudio.tuxfamily.org/en/packages/unstable

But the development of JackSession API has more or less stopped because

of the fact that Torben has no time for Linuxaudio atm. Also it's not

realistic to expect many efforts from Paul in this area.
Moreover, NSM seems to have features JS lacks, but which could be a plus

when it comes to workflow (stop session, copy session, more easy to add

apps without session support into the session, possible to add apps

without JACK support to the session).

Also some people (Fons, Liles, Nedko) think that JS has it's limitations

and therefore they don't support it (Fons, Liles). NSM could gain wider

support probably.
At first sight, NSM looks to me more promising then JS does, e.g. it has

more chance to become really useful and to get broad support in the

community (from the 'modular diehards'). But this is just a personal

feeling/ thought. If this is really the case, depends on the view of the

LAD community.
