I'm making progress again now that I have the ROS fork of PCL packaged

I'm hanging out in #fedora-robotics if you want to talk about stuff
there. :)

I've been playing with packaging stacks based off of your example, and I got three more or less done. I've edited the wiki with which packages are completed and posted thus far[1], we can add stacks to it as we go so we don't duplicate effort.

I've been following up with a few of the problem stacks over the past week or so. It looks like the next release of PCL will have the bits that the wg-pcl repository includes and the main source distribution doesn't[1]. According to the gazebo mailing list, the next release of gazebo should follow suit and the ROS stack should depend on the source distribution of gazebo and not a special patched version that is only available from rosinstall or the wg ubuntu repositories[2].

ROS groovy is due out around October[3], which is after the f18 feature freeze, but I think we should make ROS an f18 feature and shoot for getting fuerte included for the f18 release. I'm willing to handle the feature page and contribute to package submission, patching, and reviewing this summer if everyone thinks this is a workable goal.
