[ros-users] Monitoring /diagnostics and /diagnostics_agg topics

[Isaac Isao Saito]

Hi Felipe,

while I think this type of technical question is more appreciated when
asked on http://answers.ros.org,

to simulate diagnostics there's a QA post
http://answers.ros.org/question/71572/mock-diagnostics/
Also using bag files captured on multiple robots should work (I haven't
done it though).
