I don't think so on that one... But if a pull request has been submitted by alvuis then there is no real reason for them to not commit it
edit:
there was a pull request for z raise after probing that had not been merged last night. It has been merged as of this morning so with that everything should be merged in.Last edited by sniffle; 03-23-2015 at 09:35 AM.

Uhh...yeah. I'm probably going to wait a bit before telling people to pull and use that firmware. The comments at the end of the issue thread are not super encouraging:
I'll probably keep my own fork active for the time being. I get a lot of questions about ABL and double extruder setup and most of the folks I help aren't ready to jump into the tip-of-master fray on an active development project. Once things settle down, I may rebase onto the active Marlin tree.
I wrote up some instructions to try to address the repeated questions about firmware setup:
Comments are always appreciated.

I have to say I agree with this - a few bugs are cropping up from all the merges without prior testing of possible configurations.
It's getting a bit annoying actually.
I believe they are also separating non-configurable defines in the Configuration.h file (that should not have been in there in the first place) into a separate file - so far they haven't moved out anything that should not be moved (with new coders comes new methodology, sometimes bad for an Open Source project like Marlin).

I like the firmware page, it's a really good page to get people started.
All (I believe) we need now is a good slic3r config page for dual extrusion - meaning;
What should I have on my starter g-code?
Should I put the X offset in the firmware or slic3r?
Which extruder should I be using for support and/or perimeters?
Should I be using ooze prevention?
Etc.Last edited by avluis; 03-24-2015 at 07:48 AM.

Got the itty bitty installed finally. Next up get everything plugged into the Ramps and switch over the firmware. Already set up a double spool holder. I used molex plugs for the connections, I could plug my old extruder back in if I needed to.

What's on the floor is a piece of 3/8" borosilicate from McMaster - for those times when nothing but flat as f___ will do.
The "workbench" is a beat down end table from Ikea.
I do have a granite plate in the shop which I glue sandpaper to and use for sharpening.
