As a quick update. 

I believe today we have worked out a way to solve https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/issues/4633 There are now shim packages redirecting from the urdfdom ros packages to the rosdep. We've made good progress so far, and I hope to see a fresh version of indigo when i wake up tomorrow. 

The other block was the that the indigo doc jobs were exponentially growing in disk space which with monitoring I believe is now solved.

I agree that having the joystick would be valuable for many users however I don't consider it blocking as it's not inside the set of packages defined as the release. desktop_full http://www.ros.org/reps/rep-0142.html#desktop-variants

@jbohren We're planning to let indigo soak for most of a week assuming the build overnight goes well. Will it be possible to get joystick drivers in before then?

Having just realized that the "joy" package is in joystick_drivers, I would also now consider joystick-drivers to be a blocker for indigo being beyond beta, as you cannot currently teleop a robot from debs.

Hi Everyone, 

With the indigo beta out. I'm tracking one critical issue blocking the release: https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/issues/4633

Based on your testing is there anything else which should be being tracked to be resolved before indigo? 

Thanks,
Tully
