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: <a href="http://ros-users.122217.n3.nabble.com/OSError-Errno-13-Permission-denied-td1459557.html#a1459588" target="_blank">http://ros-users.122217.n3.nabble.com/OSError-Errno-13-Permission-denied-td1459557.html#a1459588</a>.  <div>


<br></div><div>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?</div><div><br></div><div>

Thanks,</div>
