ROS Melodic Morenia release

[AchmadFathoni]

I am really need this package for my robot. Unfortunately I plan to upgrade my robot to ROS Melodic Morenia soon. Would you kindly release the compatible version?

[mintar]

+1 for releasing into Melodic. Unfortunately, this is blocked by the navigation stack: ros-planning/navigation#749

Until that ticket is resolved, nothing can be done here.

Navigation has been released and synced. Could you please release eband_local_planner for lunar and melodic? No changes should be necessary, just a bloom release.

[mintar]

Just a quick update:

• The navigation API hasn't changed between kinetic and lunar, so the current master branch of eband_local_planner could easily be released into lunar. Just run bloom; no changes to the source code needed.
• Between lunar and melodic, the navigation API has changed. The major change was the switch to TF2. I have updated eband_local_planner to the new API in [WIP] Convert to TF2 + new navigation API (for melodic) #33 , which should be merged into a new branch for melodic and released then.

@mintar do you have any idea, when it is going to be released in Melodic ?

[mintar]

The maintainers seem to have abandoned this repo. I have switched away from it, I'm using dwb_local_planner now.

Hi @zhuyifengzju any plans for releasing eband_local_planner for Melodic? Cheers.

An update on this: I am affiliated with the same lab as the previous maintainers (Piyush and Jack) and am working on releasing this (and other UTexas packages) for Melodic. Apologies in the delay, but the Noetic release will be much more timely!

Stay tuned.

@maxsvetlik any migration plans for ROS2?

[maxsvetlik]

@ajaypaul2008 not at this time.

[maxsvetlik]

Release 0.4.0 targets ROS Melodic. Package release into ROS ecosystem is coming.

[maxsvetlik]

Binaries are now released for Melodic / Bionic! Thank you for your patience.
