[ros-users] ROS I Turtle Naming Brainstorming

[Tully Foote]

With ROS Groovy Galapagos out the door and plans getting underway for Hydro
Medusa, it's time to start brainstorming the full name for I Turtle.

As past names have shown, there are no rules to this process.

Please provide suggestions and comments.

Past names and codenames:

C Turtle -- cturtle
Diamondback  -- diamondback
Electric Emys -- electric
