Our long running ROS 2 release is set to the end of its lifecycle of three years. As we prepare for our new release Iron Irwini , we are preparing to say goodbye to our long-term support (LTS) release Foxy Fitzroy.
So if you’re a package maintainer, get your packages up to date and add the latest releases to rosdistro. Similarly, if you see any major blocking issues, please file a report or preferably submit a quick fix for it.
The final patch release and sync will be in mid-June, meaning that all patches/package updates need to be completed by the first week of June.
I would try my best to get all your work in before the deadline. Feel free to directly tag me or just link the pull request/issue here as a comment to this post!

Any chance you could get a backport of these two PRs merged before the final patch?

As discussed in ros2/rosidl_typesupport#114, this PR adds the generation of type… support getter declarations that is currently missing.
For this, I have also added package-specific visibility control analogous to `rosidl_generator_c`.
Here's an example of the generated `fibonacci__type_support.hpp` from the `action_tutorials_interfaces` package:
```cpp
// generated from rosidl_generator_cpp/resource/idl__type_support.hpp.em
// with input from action_tutorials_interfaces:action/Fibonacci.idl

Currently, only message type support contains a C interface to dynamically load … the type support from a library.
This PR adds a C interface for services and actions.
New PR since the previous fork was unfortunately deleted and could not be rebased. For discussions see #114 .
They were originally done for foxy so a backport should be possible with little effort.

Hello,
Do you know if there is anything similar happening for Melodic End-of-Life?
Yes, I’ll be sending out an announcement today.
