Hi:
      My boss would suggest that we are slicing the baloney a little too thin 
here...  While getting the trajectory as exact as possible in both forward and 
reverse directions is important, the practical limits of backlash, flexure 
under acceleration loads, etc. will likely provide greater error than what is 
caused by the trajectory planner.   Or am I missing something here?  Reversing 
a path will be most helpful for wire EDM, but only to a point.  We will always 
be stuck with the limitations of the machine.

      I am more interested in sinker EDM but will stay up on your developments 
and contribute in any way I can, including test running software for sinker.

 Hmmm...  I can see ways
 to cache extra information (like entry and exit 
 velocities) to get it close/exact, but it would
 likely require changes 
 to the blending
 function.  I will not have time for that any time soon.
 
 On a related note, is there
 any way we can instrument the code to 
 generate some statistics on how far it varies
 given various normal and 
 extreme test
 cases?  A few measurements will trump all the speculation
 
 (in the absense of mathematical proofs).
