Subject: [ros-users] navigation stack local plaanners
Hi,

the navigation stack contains the trajectory planner and the dwa local
planner. What is the ROS community recommendation with regards to those
two? Which one should one rather use? The wiki recommends dwa, but I am
not sure how recent that information is.

Is there a strategy for how to evolve them in the future?
The wiki provides only very sparse information about those two, and from
it it seems strange that the two planners don't share more common code.
Also it seems one copied a lot from the other, so there is a lot of
duplicate similar code anyway, which for me would be a reason to unify
the sources, so that bugfixes and improvements to one also affect the other.

regards,
Thibault
