> That leaves the direction question you didn't take a position on: I looked into the same question when I started my own (superseded) task to update the HAL pins to all be 64-bit. I concluded that there were likely to be very few of these boards out in the wild. I attempted to contact the vendors, to ask if they would be able to test, and only got a reply from Vital Systems, maker of the Motenc card. [1] They have no cards remaining to test with, and are not aware of any currently in use. I decided that I would update the drivers anyway. Is this discussion based on an expectation of withdrawing RTAI support? My impression from scanning PRs has been that RTAPI support has been expanding, with improved support for RTAI and also for Xenomai.
