You're missing a label for ROS Kinetic on the homepage:

My understanding is that ROS kinetic should use the system install of gazebo. So, there is no specific version of gazebo that is targeted to ros.

Is that correct?

I haven't kept up enough to know if that's true, but it seems complicated to maintain. You're saying ROS Kinetic will use different versions of Gazebo depending on what version of Ubuntu is being used (Ubuntu Wily, Ubuntu Xenial, etc)?

It looks like kinetic officially supports gazebo7.

Side note: We also make future versions of gazebo available for active ros distributions, where appropriate.

The primary reason I've dropped the ros tag is that we don't specifically release a version of gazebo into ros. We release into Debian.

I thought that was also true for ROS Jade? Perhaps a footnote below that homepage figure would clarify this for future Gazebo users who are just upgrading to Kinetic (there will soon be many more people doing this)
