[robocup-worldwide] RoboCup @Home platform

[Luca Iocchi]

Dear Sara,
thank you for your question. I take this opportunity to answer to all 
RoboCuppers.

Since 2017, there will be three competitions in RoboCup at Home:
- Open platform: any platform is allowed
- Softbanks Pepper (*): only Softbank Pepper robots
- Toyota HSR (*): only Toyota HSR robots

(*) names of these competitions are still under discussion.

A call for participation will be issued soon through the RoboCup at Home 
mailing list
and in the web sites, with more information about the rules and how to 
apply.

We plan to keep the same organization at least for 2018 and 2019.

Best regards,
Luca.
