Hello all,

Gazebo is rapidly approaching 1.0, which has entailed significant
changes. One major change is the method through which users can insert
custom code into Gazebo.

Previous versions of Gazebo used built in controllers and plugins. We
are now switching to support only plugins. These plugins will allow
users to control almost any aspect of Gazebo.

If you are interested, please check out this overview:

There are also two tutorials:

Finally, the API for Gazebo itself:

Please share any thoughts.

Cheers,
