 API changes in MoveIt releases
 
 ## ROS Rolling
-- `lockSceneRead()` and `lockSceneWrite()` are now protected member functions, for internal use only. To lock the planning scene, use LockedPlanningSceneRO or LockedPlanningSceneRW:
+- [10/2023] Planning request adapters are now separated into PlanRequest (preprocessing) and PlanResponse (postprocessing) adapters. The adapters are configured with ROS parameter vectors (vector order corresponds to execution order). Please update your pipeline configurations for example like this:

+- [2021] `lockSceneRead()` and `lockSceneWrite()` are now protected member functions, for internal use only. To lock the planning scene, use ``LockedPlanningSceneRO`` or ``LockedPlanningSceneRW``:
 ```
       planning_scene_monitor::LockedPlanningSceneRO ls(planning_scene_monitor);
       moveit::core::RobotModelConstPtr model = ls->getRobotModel();
 ```
-- ServoServer was renamed to ServoNode
-- `CollisionObject` messages are now defined with a `Pose`, and shapes and subframes are defined relative to the object's pose. This makes it easier to place objects with subframes and multiple shapes in the scene. This causes several changes:
+- [2021] ServoServer was renamed to ServoNode
+- [2021] `CollisionObject` messages are now defined with a `Pose`, and shapes and subframes are defined relative to the object's pose. This makes it easier to place objects with subframes and multiple shapes in the scene. This causes several changes:
     - `getFrameTransform()` now returns this pose instead of the first shape's pose.
     - The Rviz plugin's manipulation tab now uses the object's pose instead of the shape pose to evaluate if object's are in the region of interest.
     - Planning scene geometry text files (`.scene`) have changed format. Loading old files is still supported. You can add a line `0 0 0 0 0 0 1` under each line with an asterisk to upgrade old files.
-- add API for passing RNG to setToRandomPositionsNearBy
-- Static member variable interface of the CollisionDetectorAllocatorTemplate for the string NAME was replaced with a virtual method `getName`.
-- Enhance `RDFLoader` to load from string parameter OR string topic (and add the ability to publish a string topic).

 ## ROS Noetic
 - RobotModel no longer overrides empty URDF collision geometry by matching the visual geometry of the link.
