hello paul;

that is the part i have been working on. linux/gnu cad/cam.
i am still working on it, but it is difficult to attract
programming help for it.

it is also difficult to narrow down what the basic functionality
should be present in the first release. if i ask 5 different
machine shops what the basic functionality should do, i get
five very different answers.

i would like to 'hammer' out a list of basic functionality
and build from there.

let us be realistic, working on linux/gnu cad/cam does not
bring in any income. therefore, i work on it when i have the
time and no financially supported projects are being worked
on. there will be a good amount of 'technical support' demanded
when it is released.
