In previous versions of ROS 2, this was released from the OUXT-Polaris repository by @hakuturu583 . What's the relationship between this repository and that one?

We didn't realize there was a package with the same name.
@hakuturu583, is this package going to be continuously developed in the future?
If so, we will rename it to something else, please confirm it.

@hakuturu583, We'll rename the package, and we sincerely apologize for the confusion.
@clalancette, We'll come back to this after we've renamed the package and made a revision commit with the relevant changes.

Thank you for notification.
That package is the one we developed when we configured azimuth thrusters for small autonomous vessels with Dynamixel.

We developed and released it because there was no official hardware_interface at that time, but we do not intend to release the package in the future because OUXT Polaris does not need to release it as long as the official release is available.

@hakuturu583
We appreciate your contributions and sincerely apologize for any disappointment in customer support that we may have caused by waiting too long to do what we should have done. We sincerely appreciate your contributions.
So, can we use the name dynamixel_hardware_interface starting with ROS 2 humble?

@clalancette As mentioned above, the previous package manager (@hakuturu583) is no longer scheduled for release. So is it okay for our team to use this name (dynamixel_hardware_interface) starting with the humble release?

@clalancette We believe this issue has been resolved and would prefer to keep the package name as originally proposed. Please reconsider.

Sorry, a lot of people have been on vacation for the past few weeks.

I think this PR should be good, but I'm adding it to the agenda for the ROS PMC meeting tomorrow just to confirm with others.
