  • CI changes for Build and Test differenticval for CUDA image
  • Currently a workaround, might cause a queue on the CI/CD
    • Please let Mitsudome-san know if there are any issues
  • Autoware prefix: all done for S&P, thank you!
  • David: some problems introduced in the documentation where package names are used/linked to, let's look at tidying these as well

• Review of Project Board and assignment

  • Project board introduction from Amadeusz - consider merging T4's internal board with the AWF one to avoid double work
    • Misdetects the pedestrian near a car autoware.universe#7563
      • Mindoa: have some issues within T$ as well, shoul dbe solved with adding data in our dataset
      • Currently not solved, but we are attakcing it
      • Mitsudome: difficult to solve in AWF, but can link to the training script to re-train and improve their model
    • Update deprecated TensorRT 8.5 codes for ROS2 humble autoware.universe#2330
      • Couldn't find any advantages using the new API
      • Mindoa: for now safer to leave it as is - not so many TensorRT engineers who can investigate
      • Mitsudome to check with Fatih what to do with the issue
    • Migrate to point_cloud_msg_wrapper autoware.universe#1199
      *Mitsudome: safer access, but quite old and Esteve is working on other tasks
      • Vivid to investigate
    • https://github.com/orgs/autowarefoundation/discussions/5031
      • https://github.com/orgs/autowarefoundation/discussions/5037
      • https://github.com/orgs/autowarefoundation/discussions/5038
      • Amadeusz proposal: add a node to convert pointclouds
        • Removing dynamic checks would also improve migration but would be better to keep in a separate node
