As we announced back in September, we have created the Open Source Robotics Corporation (OSRC), a subsidiary of the Open Source Robotics Foundation (OSRF). OSRC is a taxable subsidiary that supports the goals of its parent, OSRF, and by extension the global robotics community.

Today we are announcing that we are changing our name to Open Robotics. Information about our work will be found at http://www.openrobotics.org. Open Robotics employee emails are migrating from @localhost to @openrobotics.org.

Technical and community information on Gazebo and ROS will continue to live at http://gazebosim.org/ and http://www.ros.org/, respectively.

Open Robotics will continue to create, distribute, and support open source tools for the robotics community, including ROS and Gazebo. OSRF will continue to hold intellectual property (e.g., copyright on code) on our open work. If you have any questions about the name change, please let us know.
