Because i using syskit and the next version is even more unstable than
master. I had several times that the depandancy between roby/syskit and
other 'core' packages is hard. So i cannot stay a long time on next and
only with syskit/roby on master.
Indeed i'm not sure if i can currently use syskit/roby on next and
everything else on master.
So generally speaking, incompatibilities between
syskit/roby/utilmm/utilrb/typelib/orogen/ base/types/(std)
The Second point, is that the release cycle to next is to long for new
features, i i (as rock-dev) add new features to rock. I take ofter
months before it goes into next.
Therefore i have (due to the same reasons above) switch to master, also
for other members of my project. I would prefer a shorter release time
between master/stable/next...
Best,
Matthias
