All, I looked at Travis briefly but it seemed to be set up for stand-alone libraries or those with minimal dependencies. I assume "installing" ROS was not an option and building ROS packages would be impossible. Am I missing something?

Sorry, I am arriving a bit late but so far the easiest way I found to validate the projects I maintain is through GitHub+Travis. By putting a badge in your root README.md file, it becomes easy to see if the stack is working fine or not: https://github.com/laas/vision_visp (change the branch to fuerte or groovy to see release per release status) You can have different .travis.yml file on different branches so that you can check for all currently maintained ROS versions. The killer feature compared to the usual buildfarm is that it annotated automatically pull requests with the CI status so that you can see if you can merge the pull request safely or not. Great that you bring this up Thomas. Another tool that I've seen you're using is coveralls, which adds much needed visibility to coverage information (free for open source projects). As for the CLA, I am currently using on another project the one from the Canonical Harmony project: http://www.harmonyagreemeI'm junts.org/ ...and I keep the signature on echosign: https://www.echosign.adobe.com/en/home.html See the CONTRIBUTING.md of this project for instance: https://github.com/roboptim/roboptim-core/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md I wasn't familiar with CLAs until this thread. It's good to start raising awareness on these things. Thanks, Adolfo.
