This initiative has lead to the delivery of a flexible/modular prototype platform to the community. After two years and four successful competitions, several issues have arisen that require some attention to maintain the focus of the testbed as a research oriented tool as well as the interest of the participants. This paper presents these issues and suggests some possible modifications that we think can improve the testbed.}, author = {Mario G{\'o}mez and J.
