Right. The camera_drivers_experimental stack has never been released,
and probably never will be.
Formerly, people where checking that stack out here (the former source
of the wiki page):
https://code.ros.org/svn/ros-pkg/trunk/stacks/camera_drivers_experimental
Now the wiki sources for camera1394, camera_info_manager, and
swissranger_camera are here:
https://code.ros.org/svn/ros-pkg/stacks/camera_drivers/trunk
The camera_drivers trunk has not been released to "latest" since this
recent move, but Blaise has suggested releasing it Real Soon Now.
Meanwhile, Box Turtle users should get the interim
camera_drivers_experimental stack here:
https://code.ros.org/svn/ros-pkg/branches/trunk_boxturtle/stacks/camera_drivers_experimental
The ros.org/wiki/camera1394 page has been updated to mention the Box
Turtle version and our intended development road map.
I apologize for the confusion, Dejan. There did not seem to be any
better alternatives, once we decided to begin the release review
process. People are still figuring out the process for releasing
ros-pkg code developed outside Willow Garage, but not from an external
site.
