I have some friends that are trying out ROS by doing the tutorials and in
the very first tutorial there is a permissions problem cause due to
beginner_tutorials being shipped as a binary file now.  Because of that it
is put in /opt/ros/... and normal users cannot write to those directories,
and so when they are instructed to use roscreate-pkg for the first time they
get a permission error, see nabble:
http://ros-users.122217.n3.nabble.com/OSError-Errno-13-Permission-denied-td1459557.html#a1459588.


So my question, if I am so inclined, is: Are the tutorials open for anyone
to edit or should changes to the beginner tutorials go through some other
channel like the mailing list?

Thanks,
