* Resolves an issue with ROS Melodic on 18.04.
- Fix for compatibility with Boost 1.66
* Compatibility with at least as early as Boost 1.58 still persists
- Update wheel diameter for Create 2
* Now matches the spec from iRobot.
- Add Bionic CI job
- Add static cast to fix compiler warnings

1.6.1 (2018-04-21)
- Build and install gtest as part of CI
- Update README with instructions for building and running unit tests
- Remove external cmake project for gtest
Now only build tests if a gtest installation already exists on the system. This should expedite time to build for users that do not care about building/running unit tests and also eliminates the need for internet access when building.
- Add test depend to gtest in package.xml
- Contributors: Jacob Perron

- Update examples
- More concise and focusing on individual features:
- Battery level
- Bumpers
