[Rock-dev] Location for rock-specific osg plugin?

[Steffen Planthaber]

Hi,

Phobos is introducing a binary alternative to wavefront objects (.bobj 
instead .obj) which provides significantly faster loading speeds 
compared to parsing the text file of an normal .obj.

rock-simulation/mars has custom build-in support for the format. But 
other apps (like rock-gui/robot_viz), cannot load urdf files referencing 
.bobj files.

As a solution I created an osg plugin (based on the mars implementation) 
to load .bobj files via osg directly, adding support for it to any osg 
application (even osgviewer etc.).

Now, where should the repository go?

- rock-gui (has the rock-gui/robot_viz which needs the plugin to display 
phobos-created )
- rock-simulation (also holds phobos, which creates .bobj meshes)
- somewhere else?

Best, Steffen
