Actually, that is the rule and not the exception. Most people see I know see no reason to upgrade LCNC/EMC2 until some feature comes along they CANNOT live without, or until they upgrade their hardware and it requires them to go in and update the config. You stabalize a setup, learn to work around it's quirks, and then keep it that way until something dies... My current running (work) machine is still running 2.5.0, and I only plan on upgrading that one after I get the new mill retrofitted and running. The real question is who is currently using keystick and mini and wants it moving forward. I would say more telling is that the can has been kicked around now for days/weeks and only one person said they would look at it...
