  Description     : implementation of the MAVLink protocol

 To the degree that a drone is not flying autonomously, some signals
 need to be sent from whatever is controlling it to the flying object.
 A few standards have evolved, one of which is MAVlink.
 .
 This is a Python implementation of the MAVLink protocol. It includes a
 source code generator (generator/mavgen.py) to create MAVLink protocol
 implementations for other programming languages as well. Also contains
 tools for analyzing flight logs.

I plan to have this package maintained with the Python team.
