Mar 1, 2026March 2026: ros/rosdistro delivered key dependency upgrades to align with Jazzy distribution. Upgraded ewellix_lift_common to 0.2.1-2 and upgraded clearpath_common to 2.9.5-1 (via 2.9.4-1). These changes were applied through Bloom-managed updates to jazzy/distribution.yaml, incorporating upstream features and fixes while preserving compatibility. No separate bug fixes were recorded this month; the work focuses on reducing maintenance risk and improving stability through current dependencies.
