We will eventually have a binary distribution. I chose not to for this release because it's not the workflow I want to encourage, and due to the management overhead of having to create packages for every combination of hardware/OS we'd like to support with a team of two (also, I need to learn the proper way to install headers with CMake...). I don't want to lock users to my OS of choice, I want to ensure it's easy to do things like turn on "-march=native" for the whole codebase, and I want it to be easy to fork and patch/customize. I don't get your comment about ROS - in my experience with ROS, most users don't build the distribution from source, they use apt or similar, up until they need to fork it to fix some bug or another (and then cry because you have to muck with apt's repository version syntax to use _your_ version of the package and not upstream). Regardless, I think it is important that users are able to build from source if needed - see above. Why would you like to restrict that?
