Great idea! Earlier on, we used ROCK on most of our AUVs, but we have more and more systems running ROS, for example on our dual-arm intervention AUV Cuttlefish. Since we already developed quite a few subsea-specific drivers and components, we would like to contribute, if we can.

Nice to know that! Maybe it is possible to adapt some UW open source feature that maybe ROCK has and ROS doesn’t… 
Who knows?

Hi,
Nice initiative, I would be interested in the ROS 2 simulation part.
A few custom simulators were developed in ROS 1, at the time there was nothing in Gazebo to do so. We would probably benefit from less divergence in ROS 2 / Ignition.

Will the meeting notes be posted? It’d be nice for people who cannot make the time.

Yes! This would be actually the meeting to better define some topics, such as members who actively wants to code, to better define the work scope… So we can proceed with the community working group tutorial and start to have regular meetings. We will definetely create a new post wiith the definitions of this meeting and maybe another poll as well.
Also, if the times in the poll are not good for you, you can send me when is better for you, so I can add it to the poll.

@Matosinho Please let me know your plans. I would be more than happy to record a video of the meeting or post a recording to the Open Robotics channels. I can also help get the word out to the broader community.

Hey everyone! It is me again. Thank you all for answering to the forms and doodle poll. Almost a week has passed since I opened the forms for the first meeting. I think is time to close the doodle poll, so we can create the online event and put in our schedules for the next week. If you didn’t answer yet or know someone interested who hasn’t answered, this is your chance. I’m going to close the poll in approximately 36h~48h from this post. I’m excited to meet you all in the next week
