Yes, but there is no communication- at least that I know of, in relation to the Antique Machinery/History subforum. If the old rules still apply I (and this subforum) will receive an abrupt and pointed reminder at some point. In the meantime I'm inclined to exercise enough latitude to discuss Atlas machines in a reasonable fashion- they are certainly antiques, like the power hacksaws that show up here from time to time which I've been permitting.
There are plans to update the forum software, I and presumably other mods did some testing on it- which looked fine. If the update ends up looking like what I tested it should not be traumatic.
