[ros-users] ROS on Mac-Ubuntu

[Matia Pizzoli]

Hi Serge,
I'm going to try the procedure explained in 

https://github.com/wjwwood/ros-osx/wiki

on my MBP with snow leopard. I will report on the result of my experience, since I believe that it is good to have a reference site to collect experiences and help improve ROS on mac.
Thank you for your effort.
