[ros-dev] Vicmarcal - are you mad?

[Adam]

vicmarcal - I have a lot of mental conditions and a disability. In fact  
these affect me enough (as well as other work) that I find it difficult to  
make real contributions to ROS other than the occasional patch here and  
there. If there is a problem it may be worth letting people know about it  
- at least in IRC - so that this sort of thing does not happen again.

After all how can one help if one does not understand the problem.
