[Discourse.ros.org] [OpenEmbedded] Using ROS in commercial OpenEmbedded environment?

['Mike Thompson' via Mailing List of ROS Layer for OpenEmbedded Linux]

Can someone suggest resources (web links, blogs, books, etc...) that discuss 
the implications of running ROS in a commercial product.  Specifically, a 
commercial product running a Yocto/OpenEmbedded derived custom Linux 
distribution.  Although, a ROS product based on a commercial distribution of 
Linux would likely have all the same issues.

I realize there is a whole spectrum of issues that might be involved.  A few of 
which might be: handling ROS version issues, ROS system configuration, open 
source license management and compliance, build and testing management, and 
then the more nitty-gritty stuff that might be tweaked in packages to better 
support commercial use where customers expect things to just work without a lot 
of tweaking on their own.

I have a feeling a lot of the service and industrial robots that are using ROS 
are solving these types of issues on their own, but I am wondering if there is 
a watering hole on the web where people concerned with these issues gather to 
share knowledge and best practices so ROS support from a variety vendors looks 
more unified from an end-customers standpoint.

Thanks,

Mike
