While the statement about communications below may have been the impression you've gotten, the statement above is way out of line, even insulting. Given that 75% of the code that makes up LinuxCNC was written by the folks you are addressing on this list, you are out of line. Such things as the current discussion re gedit, come a lot closer to the shit happens category and certainly aren't showstoppers. Better yet, because of this discussion, the next respin will have this detail fixed. Probably not with my fav editor, but at least with something that because of this discussion, is known to work without any gotcha's. That will probably be just one of the improvements in the next respin. And was probably triggered by a background IRC discussion about the next release even if a time frame for it has not been established that I am aware of. And while I forget it entirely too often, a thank you to the folks who not only wrote the code, but who take the time to answer my stupid questions is certainly worth a thank you. I look at my part in this as being that of the canary in the coal mine. I stop singing and start cheeping if I find what I'd call a bug. I also try to entertain with some of the war stories I've been involved in in my practice of electronics over the last 70+ years. Yup, I'm a genuine old fart. > > On 18/03/2019 18:59, andy pugh wrote: > > On Mon, 18 Mar 2019 at 17:01, (PVT) Paul Lawrence > > > > <p...@pal-technology.com> wrote: > >> Interesting thoughts.
