This issue reports all repos involved in foxy migration and details the future requirements for each of them.

micro-ROS Foxy migration is compound of multiple repos with feature/foxy_migration branches that must be merged into a final foxy branch on each of them:

Repo	Pre-release branch	Comments	Release PR
micro-ROS/micro-ros-build	feature/foxy_migration		#148
micro-ROS/rcl	feature/foxy_migration	Should be merged into ros2/rcl	micro-ROS/rcl#9
micro-ROS/rcutils	feature/foxy_migration	Should be merged into ros2/rcutils	micro-ROS/rcutils#8
micro-ROS/rosidl_typesupport	feature/foxy_migration	Should be merged into ros2/rosidl_typesupport	micro-ROS/rosidl_typesupport#1

Before release every row must have a PR merged from feature/foxy_migration to foxy

NOTES:

• https://github.com/eProsima/crazyflie-clients-python should be a standalone CF Radio to micro-ROS Agent bridge with installation instructions: WIP

• All feature/foxy_migration branches are referenced from this micro-ROS Build System repo. The last pre-release commits must change all these branches from feature/foxy_migration to foxy

POST RELEASE:

• Parameters and graph support will be released just after micro-ROS Foxy Release
• rcutils repository HEAD commit has changed in origin ros2 repository since the moment it was forked. A further revision of the last introduced changes must be done before rebasing this repository to ros2:foxy branch.
• repository trace_tools need a review in the CI in order to merge to foxy
• Check https://github.com/eProsima/Micro-XRCE-DDS-Client/tree/feature/wait_until_data
• Change main branch to foxy for all repos

Hello,

You are doing a great job with the development of Micro-ROS,
We are wondering when we should expect a Foxy release of Micro ROS ?

Thank you for your hard work,
Luca Miller
