[ros-users] pcl inconsistencies

[Radu Bogdan Rusu]

Jared,

I second what Ken said. The release that I made is basically against cturtle, so if you svn up (or wait for the deb) you 
should get the new changes instantly. I was expecting that an experienced point cloud user like you would be on trunk by 
now though ;)

Cheers,
Radu.
