At least twice now I had a hard time understand whether or not a constant is a ROS topic or a ROS parameter. The current naming scheme of using TOPIC_ as a prefix for topics and _PARAMETER as a suffix can be quite confusion as with a constant like TOPIC_DRIVE_PARAMETERS.
My proposal would be, that we use both TOPIC_ and PARAMETER_ as a prefix do indicate if it is a topic or a parameter.
