Hi, I'm a graduate student in software engineering. I'm doing research in artificial intellegence at University Laval, Quebec, Canada. I have good programming skills and a substantial background in software design methodology (TDD, XP, Design Patterns, etc). My favorites languages are C++ and Java, and I'm curious about Python and ruby. I'm very familiar with eclipse's rcp framework, did some experiences with QT4, and some prototypes in OpenGL.
I don't know if it is pertinent, but I have a lot of experience with Atmel's AVR mcu. I own a 5 axis mini milling machine to engineer parts for my researches. I also use it for experiences. It is for the later that I need to interact with emc. I'd like to contribute on the user interface parts of emc. I read the document on the HAL, and I find the design very sound. I read the doc on pyVCP and I think that while it is good for very simple additions, it does not fit my needs. I then quickly looked at AXIS code, and it looked quite disorganized (way to large source code files, bad opengl practices, etc). Also I'm not a big fan of the gui toolkit used. Yet, AXIS does its job, but the gui needs some improvements. I was using mach3 before and I found it bloated. I'm looking for feedback about : - anyone working on a refactoring of AXIS? - any works on including stepconf IN axis, that is the only thing I'm missing from mach3, the ability to change mill's settings from the same program (velocity, axis limits, etc..)?
