This is a worry, but Seb seems to handle stress in a healthy way so I
think he'll be OK.

John Morris tried to educate me on this, and what I think he said is
that their "universal binary" idea provides for use of either the
POSIX (the best you can do without changing the kernel), RTAI, Xenomai,
or PREEMPT_RT real time systems.

EBo: You know the FSM Labs folks right? Once the above changes are
integrated, I would think that making RTLinux work again would be
possible. I've just spent two minutes looking this up and have
discovered that RTLinux was acquired by Wind River Systems and then
discontinued, but that FSM Labs has a (possibly) related product called
TimeKeeper. I guess what I'm saying is that the next time you talk to
these folks you might describe the changes that are being made to
linuxcnc and let them know that an opportunity exists for them to
integrate support for their product if that would help them. The
existence of RTLinux made possible the first Linux based version of
EMC, so they have some "good will" on deposit with the linuxcnc project
if they need it.

Ditto.

Thanks,
