I think that is a different issue which might warrant a separate thread. A
formal mechanism to connect sponsors with interested developers would be
useful.

I didn't realize we into looking at it from a marketing angle and 2.8 is not

Not even close from being a developer. But I have to say we have three

Well, how often are isos made? If it's every 5 years or something like that,
then I'd say what's a few more weeks or a month? If Paolo doesn't respond or

I'm not seeing where RTAI is being removed from LinuxCNC only
suggestions so far say release preempt-rt now and hold RTAI ISO until
the bug can be sorted out. It's not good to hold back at least a portion
of 2.8 when they are used for different reasons.
I don't know you but I appreciate any effort

Thanks Andy. It would be a shame if all of the RTAI support in LinuxCNC
disappeared because of a bug. Has Paolo looked into this? Has anyone asked him?
On a side note, if your machine has a problem, do you just junk it or try to
work through it?

thank you for that, but if RTAI support gets removed from LinuxCNC, it all

I know from bitter experience that *some* users of open-source software
expect you do give your 24/7 to them to help solve their problems.
Others are very thankful and considerate of the open-source.

I'd second Rod Webster's suggestion.
Leave RTAI on the curb, focus the project, and move forward.
Those motivated to get RTAI supported again have an obvious work item they can
contribute to if its important to them. It can always be brought back in if

Not so, the situation has changed markedly since Alec did the work to make
RTAI usable on 4.x.x 64-bit kernels.
I know I'm not on the dev team but my take on this is that you have no
choice but to release 2.8 without RTAI.
It appears there are no prospects to resolve the situation which has
clearly been an issue since Wheezy went EOL over two years ago.
By withholding the release of V 2.8 for such an obscene
