Any word on getting this released into ROS as a debian?

Thanks!

In general, it sound like a good idea. But I think it may be too early for it. libfreenect2 is still in an alpha stage. Also, I would like to wait until the OpenCL depth processor I implemented is added to the main libfreenect2 repository, so that my fork of libfreenect2 becomes obsolete.

Hi all— would like to get this discussion rolling again, as we're looking at some applications for Kinect2 where we'd need to ship released binaries of the driver. Looks like the major thing would be getting libfreenect2 packaged and onto packages.ros.org, which is helped by there now being an upstream tag for that project.

As always, it's the question of whether we should suck in a Launchpad deb (eg), or do a third party catkin release. @tfoote, your opinion on this?
