:-) I think that was I.
I'm robotics, but I think that in this field you will never be expert. ;-) I
think that it could be erased. It was made, maybe 4 years ago, and a lot of
things have been changed from that (a lot of middlewares: ROS ...)
The problem that I have found, and I ask you Andreas is that the page is
autogenerated from templates in the svn (daily ... once at day ;-) This
format is a bit strict IMHO, because the robotics software covers a lot of
areas and maybe it's too difficult to have a simple list of recommendations.
Also, I thought the same that Thomas asked about a validation of the
modifications. For example, I don't know if there's any way to manually
generate that page and see the final result.
Regards,
Leo
