I too agree with merging branch such as you named. I also am interested in merging qtvcp soon.
My question is about merge strategy. Merging invariably will cause/show a couple bugs... that's really the point of master before release. It's been a long time since a release from master. We could release master before merging a bunch of stuff in - as it seems pretty stable right now. Or we probably should wait six months after merging major code projects, to clean up any bugs. my 2 cents.

As far as I know neither of these have any effect unless actively enabled. So I see no reason _not_ to merge them. I find myself advocating both branches on the forum reasonably regularly. External Offsets is potentially extremely useful for Plasma THC (and also potentially for PCB engraving, following an STL surface like probekins tried to.) Lots of users are using Plasma with THC, with varying degrees of success. Reverse run looks useful for wire spark erosion. At least one user is building one of those. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
