Here are my thoughts on user interfaces. Frankly I think that just a mention that users can make their own user interface would be enough and how to do that using a universal user interface method. In my opinion all user interfaces should be removed from LinuxCnc proper which will greatly reduce maintenance and upgrade problems.
As a example we’re still using Python 2.7 even though there has been talk about upgrading it for years. Perhaps a totally new version of LinuxCnc should be considered instead of adding more and more to the old. It does look to me that Qtpyvcp will be the winner in user interfaces. Johannes P.
