[robocup-humanoid] Humanoid League Long Term Roadmap (1st Draft)

[Nils Rokita]

Dear all,

we find the overall of the proposal very good.

The only major point we have found is the ball size in 2015: The 
standard FIFA Ball 5 is higher than the smallest possible robot at this 
time. (Ball: ~70 cm, robot min. 40 cm.) We would propose to use a ball 
at maximum the half hight of the minimum robot size.
