    You beat me by 17 minutes, lol! In-between checking !ros and then reading the news, I was just about to post this when Lemmy showed that the link would have been a repost. I love that feature.

    Anyone here thinking of going to ROSCon this year? It’s been a while since it was last held from the US, or from North America at all.

      I didn’t know about that repost feature, it seems awesome. I am from Europe, so I won’t go this year.

        Have you attended any previous ROSCons? I think the most recent one in Europe was in Spain from 2018. Although ROScon France has been held regularly recently, plus I think folks are trying to organize something similar for Germany.

          No, I never went to a ROSCon, in 2018 I wasn’t yet acquainted with ROS. I think the ROScon France is not held in English. The Germany one I can’t go, but I am hopping that becomes a recurrent event.

            I’ve been to most sense 2015. Co-locating the conference with IROS made it relatively easy to attend both when publishing to that academic venue. This’ll be the first year in a long time since breaking from the norm. I wonder how it’ll go.
