Hi Rok,

 

1: I would just refer to EPICS 7. There is no, and never really was an EPICS 4 as a self-contained release. The features foreseen in EPICS 4 development became practically usable first after integration in the Core, i.e., EPICS 7 release. (there may be opinions on this one though…)

2: Fixing the link would IMO do the job. (https://epics-controls.org/epics-users/projects/)

 

Thanks,

 

Timo

Hey Timo,

 

thx for comments, much appreciated. Can you suggest improvements (or check below)?

 

1. Do you just want to move to EPICS 7 (instead of 4)?
2. We just fix the link to epics-controls site?

 

Cheers,

Rok

Interesting.

In general OK IMO, but there are a couple issues that I spotted after a quick read:

 

-“EPICS 4” still keeps popping up: “…integrated micro-services in V4.” (?)

-the “projects” list points to the ANL website, which states that the list was last updated in December 2000. (epics-controls site has a list that is at least somewhat more up to date…)
