So I wound up running every step of the wiki again, after a fresh git 
pull brought in one small patch, runtests now passes 100%, so I made new 
debs. Dated 3/01 on my web page.

This I'm a bit puzzled about, it made the first cut of a new pcb for the 
sheldons encoder, but made lots a rattly noises, so I pulled the top 
cage off and found the brass disk that was screwed to the top of the 
drawbar cap was sans any sign of those 6 0-80 screws and while trapped 
by the drawbar cap, the loose disk was beating the remains of the 
optical encoder so bad it wasn't working, so I had no functioning index. 
I found 3 of the screws, undamaged and bolted it together again, but 
still couldn't find an index. The loose disk was beating the snot out of 
the opto's.  Since thats all I need, that whole opto thing will leave 
and theres now a tywrap holding a short nail for an ATS-667 to see, and 
I'm waiting for jbkwick to set. It does NOT make sense that a lack of 
index would have thrown errors for a short g2 arc. I can't mentally see 
a connection.

Some days it simply isn't worth it to gnaw thru the straps to get up and 
pee in the morning......
