Instead of "ROS2" (without a space) please use "ROS 2" throughout the file.

README.md Outdated

`rmw_fastrtps` actually provides not one but two different ROS2 middleware implementations, both of them using Fast-RTPS as middleware layer: `rmw_fastrtps_cpp` and `rmw_fastrtps_dynamic_cpp` (note that directory `rmw_fastrtps_shared_cpp` just contains the code that the two implementations share, and does not constitute a layer on its own).

The main difference between the two is that `rmw_fastrtps_dynamic_cpp` uses ROS2 Introspection at run time to decide on the serialization/deserialization mechanism, meaning that the application can be agnostic of the message types.

Instead of:

... ROS2 Introspection ...

I would suggest:

... introspection typesupport ...

The "ROS2" seems unnecessary here and the typesupport is the important missing term.
