[Autoware] Universe & Core vs Auto

I'm struggling with a new Autoware release. I know Autoware.core & Autoware.universe are under early development, hence lack of documentation. Anyway, I just couldn't understand few things:

  1. Where is the core code? Within core I found only few packages in .repos file. Is there any non-public Autoware.core package under development? AFAIK high quality packages will be migrated from universe to core - does it mean that all packages initially are initialized in universe space?

  2. Looking into Autoware.Auto, the code mostly looks good, I mean naming, namespaces, structure etc. What happened in Autoware.universe? Many packages don't fit to project layout. Are we letting inside all the packages and then refactor them?

  3. Why old-style launch files (XML) suddenly appear in the project? Are we migrating Autoware.AI to current release? Shouldn't we migrate Autoware.Auto?

  4. Is there any single launch file which I could run to test new Autoware with simulator?

@definitive Could you ask the same question in Github Discussions? (reference of support guideline )

There should be more Autoware contributors watching the questions there.

I just find some answers already:

  1. For now Autoware are develop all packages under universe signature -> https://github.com/autowarefoundation... (slide 5, One branch(Only universe for now)).

  2. It is TIERIV proposal. Looking into sample launch files I see many similarities with old demos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kn2bI...) so I assume that Autoware community are going to take it as a code base and then refactor it.

  3. See 2.

  4. Old README.md contains sample demo docs (https://github.com/autowarefoundation...) but PR is required (https://github.com/autowarefoundation...)
