Charles,

Do you know what would be involved to build linuxcnc rather than machinekit 
using the mk-cross-builder?

Would we have to set up a separate account?
Would we have to create linuxcnc-cross-builder from mk-cross-builder?
I was never able to get Docker 15 to run on my machine, would the cross-builder 
run on Docker 17?

Thanks,
Alan
