Hi ros-users,

tl;dr Travis is Opening up the Ubuntu Trusty beta
<http://blog.travis-ci.com/2015-10-14-opening-up-ubuntu-trusty-beta/> as of
yesterday, which is good news for ROS package code maintenance!

A lot of ROS packages such as MoveIt!
<https://github.com/ros-planning/moveit_ros/blob/jade-devel/.travis.yml>
have in the past relied on Travis' free continuous integration services for
testing pull requests/commits on Github. However, this has mostly been
broken for ROS for the past couple years since Travis had not upgraded to
Ubuntu 14.04, and ROS Indigo+ requires it. This problem was discussed
recently at ROSCon '15.

Hurray for code testing!

p.s. I am not affiliated with Travis
