Hey folk.

I've created a new STEP-NC forum, as Stephen George requested.

Please let me know if you guys want any other forums, such as a dedicated skienforge forum, etc.

I'd love for the new software secion to move above the object library, so I don't have to scroll down to find it

I second BodgeIt's vote for the separation of firmware from software. I'd go even further and suggest separation of reprap host from EMC2 from Skeinforge from firmware.

I have zero interest in the reprap host software - I dislike java, and since the skeinforge toolchain doesn't use it, I'm going to use that... Using a make file instead of the "arduino enviroment" to compile the firmware is a small price to pay for avoiding java completely.

I'd also like to see a separation of the Host (software) from the device (firmware) into separate forums.

It might also be helpful to dedicate a forum just for the skeinforge so everything does not wind up in a single hard to search thread.

It might also help to divide the host side into sub forums by operating system.

Actually, with so many sub forums around now, its getting a lot harder to keep track.
If the forum were collapseable and expaded when needed, that would be very helpful.
I'm one of those people that browse the web, read and write to specific forums when they are at work, on their mobile phone.

SebastienBailard, I have no idea how arduous being a library gnome is, but I highly respect your taking it on- a thousand thanks! smiling smiley
