Hi Andy, There are a few that I've been sitting on for a while that should really be fixed pre-release:
- 639 <https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/issues/> - unexpected motion after abort during threading - 546 <https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/issues/546> - acceleration violations As with most of the other issues assigned to me, I have fixes sitting in another branch, but it's mixed in with some other stuff that's more experimental. I need to take a long evening or weekend and isolate just the fixes for merging.
