The Collaboration Continues to Evolve
 | User facilities and new projects continue to provide support to extend the EPICS tool-kit, investigate new technology, and take advantage of commercial products.
|
| A large user base provides good feedback on the best opportunities to improve EPICS. Three years ago the major problems discussed were complex installation, meager documentation, a steep learning curve and lack of higher level tools. The current complaints are: the learning curve and finding the documentation.
|
| Open source will provide an environment where all members are able to make contributions and control the direction of their installation.
|
| The EPICS collaboration continues to be a collection of cooperating laboratories that benefit from each others experience and developments.
