Description

This ticket serves as living checklist of items to accomplish to ensure Open-RMF is released on ROS 2 Jazzy Jalisco that will target Ubuntu 24.04. One major change in the new distribution will be the drop in support for Gazebo classic. But it also provides opportunities to release new packages and make improvements with breaking changes that will be listed below.

• rmf_ci_templates:

  • Switch rolling jobs to Noble: Support Iron and transition Rolling to Noble rmf_ci_templates#10
  • Add Jazzy option once available.

• rmf_simulation : Refactor plugins in an ECS based way rmf_simulation#114

  • Drop *_gz_classic_plugins packages and refactor *_gz_plugins to adopt more favorable ECS patterns.
  • Drop TPE support
  • Support Gazebo Harmonic

• rmf_traffic_editor: Harmonic release and ECS refactor rmf_traffic_editor#483

  • Drop gz_classic support.
  • Change world generation to adopt ECS patterns.
  • Rename Ignition to Gazebo.
  • Update templates to Harmonic

• rmf_demos: Port to harmonic rmf_demos#206

  • Drop *_gz_classic packages
  • Drop TPE support
  • Bloom into Rolling to check that packages can be released

• Drop rmf_demos_dashboard -> default to rmf_web Remove rmf_demos_panel rmf_demos#235
• Verify apt versions of critical python modules are available
• Update assets with new plugin tags if any
• Create a rmf-desktop-full binary variant that installs binaries upto rmf-dev and rmf-demos
