Aye, thanks from me too.
I'd like to +1 Jack's comments about preferring the web service that was
previously available.
1. Getting things right on one web server somewhere is always going to be
far easier than getting it right on thousands of users systems. Even if
docker does make this proposition easier, what we have seen above is it
still gets awkward when the dependencies shift (e.g. needing a custom
version of docker). I also ran into problems because of python3 interfering
with my environment.
2. Getting users to pre-release is a desirable thing. Less rosdistro PR's
to approve, less red blips on the build chart, less latency for Tully to
wrap up an official release into public. The less barriers there are for
them to do this, I feel the better and easier the maintainence will be.
Daniel.
