I really like the idea of the joint_state_publisher gui, it makes
visualizing and debugging a urdf file much easier. This would even
allow you to use rviz to debug a urdf file. This is something we
should absorb into the robot_model stack (we'll have to look into the
dependencies).
For the easy_state_publisher, I'd think that if we give the new
joint_state_publisher the ability to run without a gui, it would be
possible to run it in combination with the current
robot_state_publisher offers the same (and much more!) functionality.
What do you think?
