ROS Hydro is currently in its beta phase and Tully Foote has announced
that Hydro is planned to be released at the end of July. I see a good
chance for us to announce our first release of meta-ros just in time
for the Hydro release and providing a meta-ros release that is in line
with the versions of the ROS Hydro release.
I think it's a good idea to use Hydro as a base for our work.
B. Synchronize versions
The hydro-release defines the versions of its packages in
https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/blob/master/hydro/release.yaml. All
we have to do is to adjust our versions to the versions in the Hydro
release. I believe cross-compiling the packages should still work with
the current Hydro versions. Possibly, it is best to have a simple
python script that compares the meta-ros versions to the release.yaml
to simplify staying up to date with the changes to Hydro during the
beta phase and later on.
Maybe something similar to distrodata.bbclass from meta-yocto could be used.
