RDP88: It takes a village to build a robot

Let me introduce you Sophia Kolak. Sophia is a software researcher at Carnegie Mellon university. In 2019 she presented a talk at the ROSCON 2019 entitled: It Takes a Village to Build a Robot: An Empirical Study of The ROS Ecosystem
Today she is here to talk about her paper and why it matters for all ROS Developers.
