Hi Gazebo Community!
This week’s meeting was held on 2025-08-11T18:00:00Z and the following is a summary:

  • Progress updates:
    • Buildfarm: No new issues last week, though some recent regressions are under investigation.
    • Jetty Release: A new Feature/Code Freeze policy is now in effect. Non-main PRs were removed from the release project board. Maintainers will now forward port all merged changes to Jetty branches after which older branches will be feature unfrozen.
    • Simulation Interfaces: The SetEntityState service has been implemented. A method for remotely modifying the Entity Component System (ECM) was shared.
    • Zenoh: Work is ongoing for the Zenoh integration, with a PR to fix code and enable tests (gz-transport#676).
    • Bullet-Featherstone: Frame fixes have been merged into gz-physics (#650, #649) and a PR to enforce fixed base joints was merged into gz-sim (#2984).
    • ROS Dependencies: PRs to add Qt6 dependencies to rosdep are up (rosdistro#47214, rosdistro#47215). The PR to update Gazebo ROS vendor packages is ready for review (gz_vendor#17).
