Thanks, Nate. I appreciate all the hard work you and the Gazebo developers
are doing. It's really improving rapidly.
It's good you are starting tick-tock now. That will help a lot.
But, the bigger issue is that 1.3 should not have been added to ROS after
Groovy final. It needed to wait until Hydro (which is not very long).
