The Robotics DSL Zoo is a dynamic, live DSL and model zoo for robotics:
entries are added, the classification evolves and the site is regenerated.
This holds for corlab/dslzoo (https://corlab.github.io/dslzoo/) as well as
for the fork norro/dslzoo (https://norro.github.io/dslzoo/). What the live
site shows is the zoo as it is today, not a fixed state.
The citable truth for the SIMPAR 2014 and JOSER 2016 surveys lies on corlab
(https://github.com/corlab/dslzoo), in pinned states that do not change.

| Candidate search of the survey | branch query, tip also tag legacy-2015-12-22-query |

The chapter prints only the former address
http://cor-lab.org/robotics-dsl-zoo (footnotes 6 and 8). It no longer serves
the zoo. The zoo has no pinned state from that time: the repository starts on
2014-11-26 and the bibliography was first committed on 2015-01-08, after the
survey. The closest preserved states are the
Internet Archive capture of the former address
of 2014-10-09 and, on corlab, the first generated site of 2014-12-10
(commit 6ffcb65).
| What | Where on corlab |
|---|---|
| Last bibliography before the restructuring (2020-05-08, 144 entries) | tag legacy-2020-05-08-bib |
| Last hand-generated site | tag legacy-2020-05-08-site |

git checkout joser16-site # generated site of that time
The website was hand-curated from 2014 to 2020. Its modernization started on 2026-09-28; the hand-curated edition is succeeded by a generated edition that is curated less by hand but stays current.
query and the tags above are never moved, deleted or
re-created in corlab/dslzoo. A new state gets a new tag.dslzoo.bib stays at the repository root. Its entries, its
history and the manual classification of the entries (made by hand,
following the process documented in the JOSER 2016 survey) are kept.legacy-2020-05-08-site.A published citation has to resolve to exactly the cited state years later. A reference that is moved or deleted silently changes what a citation points at, and a reader cannot detect it.
corlab/dslzoo block deletion and force-push for
the branches query and gh-pages, and deletion, force-push and update for
the tags joser16* and legacy-*. They guard against accidents. A
repository administrator can switch them off, so the guarantee rests on the
commitment stated on this page as much as on the settings.
