Hi Thomas and Fabien,

using Git submodules is fine of course, but just to point out another
option: you can release each stack as a separate Git repo, then add
them to a rosinstall file and adding that to the indexer. See this mail
[1] by Ken Conley to ros-users. This approach makes it possible to
develop and check out each stack separately while avoiding certain
problems with Git submodules (such as this one [2]).
