Again, I go back to my initial comment that LinuxCNC needs a "Sid" branch, which would get buildbot builds and allow the truly brave to experiment. A Sid or unstable branch provides a place to drop the non-trivial patches and integrate feature branches for wider testing without breaking the release (stable) and master (testing) branches folks expect to be able to use for real work. -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net
