Understandable. The paypal link could be set up so that it could be
turned on when funds are needed and turned off when the funding is met.
The treasurer would have to stay on top of that though.

This must be the most wide spread discussion in ages at this mailing list,
That's the beauty of having different methods of communication. You like
the Zone and I hate it and never go there. Doesn't make one better than
the other in any way, it just makes the LinuxCNC forum better for me and
5000 other users and the Zone better for you and the people who like to

Why on earth would you want to close down the LinuxCNC forum and shift

that waiting for all the commercials to load and clutter up your screen

That is the main reason I don't go to the zone as with my 1Mb (sometimes

you have to navigate all the ads to find the forum...

There is nothing wrong with the forum as it is.
The CNCZone is not open and could go to a paid subscription service in a

Dear EMC Board,
you recently announced the decision to rename EMC2, see below.
I do not take issue with the renaming decision per se - legal conditions are
what they are, and while I don't hear the 'buzz' just yet, I believe a unique
