Another reason is that beside the functionality changes, one of the first things changed in JA was the naming of variables throughout the code. So I'm not sure you can safely assume you could still get the same results as a non-JA build, even if you add the ini variable and modularity. What I mean: we changed all the code to be sure that every part of emc2/linuxcnc understands the distinction between joint and axis - which was not the case before. Otoh the main reason for not jumping ship to JA is a worry about chaning a running system with something that has been pretty invasive fixed - and atm it's not 100% clear it's a complete and viable replacement. But for that to happen we surely need to merge it into master, then we won't have to worry about it anymore - it'll be broken or flawed for a while, and it'll get fixed soon after (I hope ;).

One reason is that JA needs extra information from the INI file, that isn't present in a standard INI file. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.
