[ros-dev] State of the 0.2.9 branch

[Ge van Geldorp]

At the moment, there's one blocker bug registered, 1107: Opening a Command
Prompt (console) window causes the desktop to hang.

A lot of networking apps crash, all due to the same bug. Arty is working on
that one.

On each boot, I have to get rid of 5 device install screens. I'm not
complaining, I understand PnP is a work in progress, but if nobody objects
I'll change the code in the branch to never pop up the device install
screens.

Last item is perhaps a bit controversial. I don't like the huge icons in the
start menu. It also makes the start menu not fit in 640x480. Can we please
go back to smaller icons?

Other than these items (only 1 of them serious as far as I'm concerned) I
like the branch and I believe it will become a good release.
