Description
Relates to #3288. #4736 (which closed #3288) added a section about cross-
rmwvendor communications not being guaranteed. #3288 also mentioned cross-distro communications, but it was not documented.This new Discourse post is asking about cross-distro (in)compatibility: https://discourse.ros.org/t/incompatability-between-distributions/43747. We've talked about it not being guaranteed many times before, but I don't think it's mentioned anywhere in the docs (but I could be wrong). Since it's about multiple distros and not a specific distro, it's hard to find a place to document this, but I think the main distributions/releases page works well. I'm open to other suggestions, though.
