Hi, Just want to share my experience. I started using joints_axes branch a few years back when it was ja3. It fit better for my parallel machines but unfortunately had a lot of problems. Recent development of JA branch is a whole different story. I've been using and testing it for a few months. Basically, the new JA revived my parallel robots: hexapod and delta. It's stable and it works as supposed in terms of kinematics, homing, jogging etc. New features like auto teleop and sync homing are essential for gantries and non-trivial machines. When I decided to switch my turret lathe and mill to JA, with the auto-convert tool it went fast and seamless. Bottomline: I support the merge and I'm really thankful to the developers.
