The Fanuc Post Processors from the Autodesk HSM Post Library have been used as templates to add improvements to this version of the Centroid CNC12 specific milling Post Processor.

Mercans seem to be big into believing their own bullshit. In fact, in a Wikipedia entry clearly written either by himself or some worthless sycophant, he considers himself to have turned the company around and delivered a transformation. Of course, Galvin considers himself above any form of responsibility for the demise of Motorola. Motorola today is a tiny vestige of its former self (150k employees when I worked there in a wide range of sectors, 40k today, clearly struggling and solely in telecoms). An endless cycle of growth, retraction, redundancies, company sales etc to maintain the share price (and their bonuses presumably), finally left the company up its own arse.

This was demonstrated close to home when Motorola acquired TTPcom in Cambridge for £100M - then promptly sacked all the staff and closed down the business. One key benefit resulting from the acquisition of an exciting new player or competitor is the ability to stifle competition or unwelcome near innovation. I could almost say I miss these now, as they were so rich in vitamins. At Motorola, we could look forward to a bullshit-packed CEO's email each month from Chris Galvin and his henchmen. It has distinctly similar echos to my time at Motorola, where corporate bullshit, management bollocks and sheer incompetence was an evident prerequisite for advancement into senior management. It's clear that his experience of being part of Autodesk was not a happy one.

Julian maintains a blog (" Freesteel") that incorporates some of the early material and it includes an interesting brochure from those days. It's all been subsumed into firstly HSMworks and finally Autodesk (after they acquired HSMworks). It's lost in all the hype but worth recognising that the breakthrough in CNC machining that is called "adaptive clearing" was made by a couple of guys from Liverpool back in the early noughties.
