I would hope we're also attracting younger people who are interested in 
controlling machines;  be they robots, mills, lathes or simple pick and place 
machinery.  

I'm not even sure that a code of conduct is even needed on these forums.  I've 
been managing the E-Leadscrew forum for more than 10 years.  I've found that 
just as the book Humankind
https://www.littlebrown.com/titles/rutger-bregman/humankind/9780316418553/
states that people are fundamentally and basically kind, so we've really never 
had issues on that forum.  Dynamic discussions sometimes but name calling and 
abuse isn't allowed.   We haven't needed a CoC.

Nor even off topic subjects as there are other forums for that.  For this forum 
I'd rather learn how I can attach a CANUSB to LCNC and send/receive CANopen 
messages with the SocketCAN interface.  Not about CoC.

So my goal, other than trying to figure out how to mount sensors so I can get 
spindle feedback is Controller Area Network oriented.  To get there I'll 
probably have to get my Hohman Designs ModIO working since there was an attempt 
with LCNC for it.  But I think it just sort of dribbled away.  But by working 
with ModBus I'll learn more and eventually be able to create CANopen stuff.  I 
have a lot of CAN experience.  Very little LCNC experience.
