Re: Looking for sponsor for ROS packages (robotic framework)



Hi,

I have just 2 common proposals:

1) Please create a list of packages in which order they should
   be uploaded.
2) Think about adding a "ros-" prefix to all source packages,
   related to this project not to mix them.

Regards

Anton
