+# Under Construction!
+
+This repo has been forked from the original implementation of `meta-ros` for
+ROS 1 Indigo Igloo at <https://github.com/bmwcarit/meta-ros>. As of 2019-05-21,
+it is in the process of being upgraded to be able to build current ROS 1 and
+ROS 2 distros (Crystal Clemmys, Dashing Diademata, and eventually
+Melodic Morenia and Bouncy Bolson) from recipes generated by
+[superflore](https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/superflore/pull/168)
+and will not be usable for a little while. Please see this
+[wiki page](https://github.com/ros/meta-ros/wiki/Proposed-Superflore-OE-Recipe-Generation-Scheme)
+for details of what is being done.

 This is a layer to provide ROS Indigo Igloo in an OpenEmbedded Linux system.
 It provides a stable cross-compilation build system for many common ROS packages. 
 Currently, this layer is still under continuous development.
