Hi everyone,

We pushed out new debian releases of the asctec_drivers, mav_tools, and  
scan_tools stacks, The stacks support diamondback, electric, and unstable.

Here are some highlights of the changes:

scan_tools:
  - canonical_scan_matcher has been renamed to laser_scan_matcher;
  - laser_scan_matcher now supports multiple sources of predictive input  
such as imu, odometry, and alpha-beta velocity tracking; can work with  
laser scans or pcl pointclouds
  - laser_ortho_projector behavior significantly changed to match new  
laser_scan_matcher - check the wiki page for details

asctec_drivers:
  - Imu messages published by asctec_proc now take data from the  
IMUCalcData/acc_*_calib fields (instead of previous incorrect acc_*). The  
values are measured in different frames of reference; if you are using the  
/mab/Imu messages, you will need to account for this change.

We also improved the nodelet support in all packages and fixed various  
bugs reported by the community.

Cheers,

Ivan
