Versioning Roadmap: MoveIt! 1.0 Release Plan

Thanks @dirk-thomas for the feedback, I’ve updated the orignal table where appropriate.

  • ROS Melodic is targeting Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (not 16.04).

Our MoveIt! Melodic branch builds for 16.04 also, so I’ve included both in the table

  • A beta release of ROS Noetic won’t be available before the end of 2019 since it will target Ubuntu 20.04 (and Python 3) and neither Ubuntu 18.04 not 16.04

We’re calling our next version of MoveIt! “Noetic” now even though the main ROS distro won’t be out until end of 2019. We can’t let ROS’ slowing down of releases slow down MoveIt! development.
