He can hire a programmer and pay him to fix it ... as long as it's nice enough to go in the distribution.
It's more likely that there is a problem that crap is not accepted .... look at the linux kernel ... Even google is trying to play nice with main line after the brain dead crap they produced in the android kernels, and everyone is playing nice now. I think they will learn ... thats the way it's been with the kernel and stuff like eclipse ... ( IBM finally learned ... ). The real problem is that they hire a programmer to scratch that itch, and they also scratches everyone elses .... some companies wont rewrite code since that's already payed for ! ( even if it's buggy or doesn't work ). / my two cents, Lars Segerlund. 2013/7/3 andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com>: > On 3 July 2013 01:03, Charles Steinkuehler <char...@steinkuehler.net> wrote: > >> The main point I am trying to make is the "hackerspace folk" have a >> different perspective on the world than the industrial machine control >> market where LinuxCNC is typically used, and if you want to engage >> these people (which I think is a good idea) the LinuxCNC community >> needs to be prepared for the differing perspectives of the two >> communities. > > FWIW I feel that the LinuxCNC developers tend to be closer to the > Open-Source movement than to the Industrial Controls market, and this > has probably been an obstacle to industrial adoption in the past.
