Thanks Radu.<br><br>Yes, motion planning, towards the goal of grasping etc. Been at it for a while, trying to get the stack to work with our robot, pr2 is embedded into everything haha. So i thought I'd take a break and try to get something related but seemingly more generic up and running, and of course I chose a package that was essentially dead! Lucky me :)<br>
I'll let you know how it goes.<br><br>Ben<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, May 20, 2010 at 7:43 PM, Radu Bogdan Rusu <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:rusu@willowgarage.com">rusu@willowgarage.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

As Gil said, we're in the process of converting the code and the underlying structures to "something better" (tm). :)<br>
We're working on the details right now, but it looks like this might happen within the next few weeks, so we'll keep you<br>
posted. In the meantime, try using the current code and let us know if you have any problems with it. Is your<br>
application motion planning or something else?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Radu.<br>
