robot_manager crashes almost 9 out of 10 times with deb version. Somehow source version fails less.

I think perhaps we have to drop this. While it looked good, it took alot of work to get it in...and it's still changing underneath us. We don't have the resources to keep up with it.

Do you mean dropping from documentation only or dropping the deb release as well?

Is the bug fixed?
The stdr_gui_node dies every time on my computer. I am using ubuntu14.04 and ros indigo.
