Hello fellow robots and roboticists,

This is the second time I've tried to submit this package through the
users list.  If I'm doing something wrong, someone let me know the
proper way.

 I'd like to draw your attention to a new package which allows the
control of a Sphero robot. It is written in C++ and uses bluez to send
packets to the robot. It currently allows either joy or twist messages
to control velocity.  Also available are the two lights on the robot.
This package was developed at the ARLab, University of Utah.

If you have suggestions or run into problems please let me know through the git!
