This was a tabled item from the last meeting.
The consensus seemed to be the idea had merit but discussion was needed.

Micheal's proposal was a 'machiekit' package that included:

 "Machinekit would be HAL+RTAPI+NML replacement (zeromq+protobuf)"

The idea here is that HAL is a great piece of code that has a fairly easy 
boundary
to break it out of liuxcnc.

Then other projects could use it and hopefully improve it and maybe join our 
group.
Modularity also makes it easier for people to digest the code so as to be able 
to contribute.
John K's original idea for HAL was similar (as I understand it).

I'm for all it.

I'm not sure of the downside other then it's work to do.
I assume others wish to discuss the NML replacement
