[ros-users] Hydro Medusa Release Cycle Planning

[Tully Foote]

Hi Everyone,

As mentioned in the Groovy announcement we plan to keep the Hydro
development cycle shorter to get back in sync with Ubuntu.  Below is
our tentative plan:


   - Initial Fork Feb 1st
      - pending cleanup of catkin-debs
   - Alpha Feb 25th
      - All PR2 packages catkinized
   - Beta March 25th
      - All packages as if it could be released
      - downloadable as desktop-full deb
      - goal: most packages catkinized even leaf ones
   - Hydro Release April 25


This is documented at the hydro/Planning page [1].

Hydro SIG Process Kickoff

Related to this it is time to start thinking about SIGs.  The process is
relatively simple and flexible.  Basically each SIG gets a wiki page and
mailing list.  If you're interested in organizing one, please create one
following the SIG process [2] and list it on the planning page [1]  and
announce it on ros-users.  There are already a couple started, for those of
you already starting the process please announce your intentions on
ROS-users to let the community know about your efforts.
