It is a matter of time. I _will_ be doing the FPGA conversion to
support step/dir - I need it for my own CNC project. But at the
moment I am working (along with most of the other developers) on
getting EMC 2.1.0 released. After that I want to get my machine
running with software step/direction, before I dive into the FPGA
work. It will be a few months.
