It's not about being ros2 a finished thing that you just can use, it's about thinking about what might be relevant in the future. Technology wise, ros2 solves some issues which have just "happened" with ros1 without being designed.

Basically, like with all Linux things, you should not care about "stable" at the beginning of a development. "Stable" is something you can think of when your development is finished and you care about using it for some real work.

I'll look around if we have something that could be in a state to be shared. rsc -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | _______________________________________________ ptxdist mailing list [email protected]
