• fkie_master_discovery: fixed compatibility to older versions
• master_fiscovery_fkie: integrated pull request #24 Thanks for creating the PR to \@garyservin and \@mikeodr! The change lets you define an interface by [~interface]{.title-ref}, [ROS_IP]{.title-ref} envar or append the interface to multicast group like 226.0.0.0@192.168.101.10. The master_discovery then binds to the specified interface and creates also an unicast interface for active requests on communication problems or if [~robot_hosts]{.title-ref} are defined. Now you can also disable the multicast communication by setting [~send_mcast]{.title-ref} to false. In this case the requests are send to hosts defined in [~robot_hosts]{.title-ref}.
