Planned updates to public packages

todo_pub.md

• Change all sudo pip to pip --user

Franka ROS Interface

• Python 2 + 3 compatibility. Current issue: shebangs for node scripts.
• Disable switching to default controller if current controller is position controller. (maybe?)
• GrippperInterface->close() method bug: if gripper is already closed, the method causes the gripper to open instead.
• Rename set_joint_positions_velocities to set_joint_positions_impedance_ctrl or something more meaningful. Leave old method for backward compatibility.

backburner

• Give correct values for controller state publisher in torque controller..? (would mean including robot_model (now already included for coriolis torques retrieval) and robot_state instances in controller)
• Cartesian controllers..?
• work on support for franka_ros 0.7.0 unreleased version

PandaRobot

franka_panda_description

• Mention gazebo panda and add link

Panda Simulator

• Issues with new description files when reading joint velocities and efforts
• Mention that it uses custom controller interfaces.
• Weird behaviour when switching controllers using API.
• Clean code for PandaRobotHWSim (unused code, etc.)
• panda_sim_hw

backburner

• Fix gripper control and dynamics model
• Improve code quality; add quality badge
