1.1 is released as a "latest" release. It's the development version for 1.2 which will be officially stable in C-turtle (scheduled, I believe, for July). You can start to use 1.1 if you'd like, so long as you're willing to live with a bit of instability. Since visualization 1.1 depends on a number of other "latest" stacks, you'll probably want a full latest install. Follow the instructions on http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Installation/Ubuntu/SVN, but substitute "latest" for "boxturtle" Josh On Tue, May 18, 2010 at 2:22 AM, Nicolas wrote: > OK, my bad, I thought that 1.1 was the current version. > > Is there an approximative date for the 1.1 release ?
