Nov 1, 2024November 2024 monthly summary for ros/rosdistro: Delivered multi-distribution feature updates that align with the latest MRPT ROS ecosystem and bloom release practices. Key improvements include upgrading MRPT-related ROS packages to 2.14.5-1 across noetic, humble, iron, rolling, and jazzy, and synchronizing the python_mrpt_ros wrapper with the same release. Also upgraded MP2P-ICP to 1.6.3-1 across humble, rolling, jazzy, and noetic as part of the bloom process. The updates were implemented with comprehensive distribution.yaml changes and wrapper alignment to ensure consistent builds across distros. Major bugs fixed (through packaging and alignment work): resolved cross-package version drift between MRPT packages and their Python wrappers, and eliminated release inconsistencies across distributions by applying coordinated bloom updates. Overall impact and accomplishments: improved compatibility and stability for downstream users and robots by keeping MRPT and MP2P-ICP in sync with the latest ROS ecosystem, reducing maintenance overhead, and enabling smoother deployments across multiple distributions. The work also demonstrates robust multi-distro coordination and release readiness. Technologies/skills demonstrated: ROS packaging and bloom release process, cross-distro coordination, distribution.yaml management, Python wrapper alignment, and multi-package version synchronization across noetic, humble, iron, rolling, and jazzy.
