@l_u_c has contacted me personally to let me know that this not accurate.
My post was just based on some observation and maybe me mis-remembering some things. It was not meant to be derogatory towards him, at all.
So apologies to him, no offense was meant.
I don’t really know what the depths of his CNC use is, or what his real intent behind the software was, or the history. I was just going off of some things I remembered reading, but that may have been a misunderstanding on my part. I thought I remembered him telling me in his discord that he didn’t have a CNC machine, but I might be wrong… or maybe that has changed since then.
Seeing your participation here and on the FluidNC discord, I’m certain there’s no malice on your part. There appears to have been some weird falling out between Mitch/Bart and Luc that I don’t think they (or I) understand- and I think that is a factor here.
It’s a shame, Luc did some awesome work and I don’t think anyone in any of these communities intends any malice or discrespect.
Extensions can request/receive data but it seems that it’s completely ignoring when an extension sends a command. For example, my JoyJog extension requests some settings and it gets them back. But, when it sends jog commands, it doesn’t do anything. My hold monitor extension receives messages and pops up a hold message like it’s supposed to, but the Resume button doesn’t work. Weird.
Also, extra content (extension) config validation doesn’t like a refresh value of 0.
I need to update the firmware releases page, maybe I will wait to see what is going on with the 3 funky JP3’s first so as not to change too many variables.
