One functionality I would like to see is an integrated repository manager
within LinuxCNC itself. That way, people could point to repositories for
designs and downloads. Granted, a different use case than for the
application itself, which has to use the software repository manager

IMO, the new 12.04 "software center" has some big usability problems
compared to the Synaptic Mgr.
Synaptic package manager is clearly a different package which can be
loaded via the "software center", then you can ignore the "software
center" and get back to work! :-)

It isn't _that_ hard to get the development branch.
Configure the Synaptic Package manager to look at the buildbot then

I have seen all the sausage making - with the relatively few people

I am pleased to announce the creation of a branch for stabilizing and
