analysis of binary data as simple and natural as possible.
BitStrings can be constructed from integers (big and little endian), hex, octal,
binary, strings or files. They can be sliced, joined, reversed, inserted into,
overwritten, etc. with simple functions or slice notation. They can also be
read from, searched and replaced, and navigated in, similar to a file or stream.
bitstring is open source software, and has been released under the MIT licence.

camera_calibration_parsers contains routines for reading and writing camera
calibration parameters.
image_transport should always be used to subscribe to and publish images. It
provides transparent support for transporting images in low-bandwidth
compressed formats. Examples (provided by separate plugin packages) include
JPEG/PNG compression and Theora streaming video.
polled_camera contains a service and C++ helper classes for implementing a
polled camera driver node and requesting images from it. The package is
currently for internal use as the API is still under development.

* It is very easy to learn and use
* It draws nice-looking class, sequence, state, object and use-case diagrams
* It is completely free (distributed under the GNU General Public License)
* It is cross-platform
Violet is intended for students, teachers, and authors who need to produce
simple UML diagrams quickly. It is not intended as an industrial strength
tool. Here are some of the features that industrial-strength UML programs have
and that Violet does not have:
* Code generation. Violet does not generate any source code from UML diagrams.
* Reverse engineering. Violet does not generate UML diagrams from source code
* Semantic checking of models. You can use Violet to draw contradictory
diagrams XMI export or import. Violet does not generate files that can be
imported into other UML tools, nor can it read model files from other tools
If you just want to draw simple UML diagrams without too much fuss, chances
are you'll like Violet. If you have more serious needs, check out one of the
other programs.

throughout the ROS ecosystem. It contains three types of packages:
Filtering:
* bfl: the Bayesian Filtering Library from the Orocos project
* filters: a standardized C++ API for filters. It also has a class to chain
filters at runtime based on parameters.
Helper libraries:
* actionlib: provides C++ and Python libraries for interacting with the Action
API used by the executive.
* nodelet: a way to run multiple algorithms within the same process abstracted
with a ROS interface.
* pluginlib: providea a C++ API for dynamically loading plugin classes.
Parsers:
* tinyxml: a C interface to the third-party tinyxml parser for ROS.
* xacro: an XML macro language.
* yaml_cpp: a C++ to the third-party YAML parser for ROS.
Mercurial repositories using SSH public key authentication; it provides
convenient and fine-grained key management and access control.
All of the repositories controlled by mercurial-server are owned by a single
user (the "hg" user in what follows), but many remote users can act on them,
and different users can have different permissions. We don't use file
permissions to achieve that - instead, developers log in as the "hg" user
when they connect to the repository host using SSH, using SSH URLs of the
form "ssh://hg@repository-host/repository-name". A restricted shell prevents
them from using this access for unauthorized purposes. Developers
are authenticated only using SSH keys; no other form of authentication is
supported.
To give a user access to the repository, place their key in an
appropriately-named subdirectory of "/usr/lcoal/etc/mercurialserver/keys"
and run "refresh-auth". You can then control what access they have to what
repositories by editing the control file
"/usr/local/etc/mercurialserver/access.conf", which can match the names of
these keys against a glob pattern.
For convenient remote control of access, you can instead (if you have the
privileges) make changes to a special repository called "hgadmin", which
contains its own "access.conf" file and "keys" directory. Changes pushed to
this repository take effect immediately. The two "access.conf" files are
concatenated, and the keys directories merged.
