I am not fond of the LinuxCNC name. I like Andy Pugh have had fond hopes of someday getting "EMC2" to run on MacOS (unix instead of Linux).
It seems to me unlikely that the trademark for "EMC" should have ever been granted absent a qualification based on font expression, color etc. However, "coulda, shoulda, and woulda" aside, Linux is free and runs on lots of hardware, MacOS is not free and runs on relatively expensive hardware. I have come to enjoy working with my Linux boxes and I definitely like the LinuxCNC software. Maybe we should get over the unfairness of the problem and drive on with making LinuxCNC the best CNC controller software on the planet (assuming that it isn't already that???). I used to practice law and my general opinion is that lawsuits generally benefit no-one but the lawyers (win or lose). That is not the way that I would choose to spend my time.
