Coding is good, but there's a lot of work to be done in tweaking the configuration (both LinuxCNC/HAL and the setup of the distribution in general), and documentation, HOWTOs, or general spreading awareness are all appreciated! > My target system will primarily be a 3D printer, and occasionally > it will be used to drill and mill PCBs.

One thing I've been thinking of doing is a Beagle Bone to Ramps cape (tentatively named CapeR) that would let folks just swap out their Arduino for a BeagleBone. It would mostly just be the two appropriate connector sets with wires tying them together, and maybe a few protection or voltage conversion parts to deal with the lower voltages on the BeagleBone.
