Some minutes from today’s meeting:

  • New ros2-rust release this week.
  • Changes to the message generation pipeline will happen after the next release, to make sure we have all the changes reviewed in all the related projects (rclrs, rosidl_generator_rs).
  • Agreed to move to rustc 1.85 as a minimum requirement.
  • Migration to Rust 2024 postponed to the release after the next, so that folks who have submitted PRs have time to update.
  • Windows CI is failing because we need binaries provided by the ROS buildfarm, but the latter now requires authentication. We’ll make a new release anyway, @KimMcG may add workaround if the fix in the ROS buildfarm is not released this week.
