+- [autowarefoundation/autoware](https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware)
+  - Meta-repository containing `.repos` files to construct an Autoware workspace.
+  - It is anticipated that this repository will be frequently forked by users, and so it contains minimal information to avoid unnecessary differences.
+- [autowarefoundation/autoware_common](https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware_common)
+  - Library/utility type repository containing commonly referenced ROS packages. 
+  - These packages were moved to a separate repository in order to reduce CI execution time
+- [autowarefoundation/autoware.core](https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware.core)
+  - Main repository for high-quality, stable ROS packages for Autonomous Driving.
+  - Based on [Autoware.Auto](https://gitlab.com/autowarefoundation/autoware.auto/AutowareAuto) and [Autoware.Universe](https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware.universe).
+- [autowarefoundation/autoware.universe](https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware.universe)
+  - Repository for experimental, cutting-edge ROS packages for Autonomous Driving.
+  - Autoware Universe was created to make it easier for researchers and developers to extend the functionality of Autoware Core

+- [autowarefoundation/autoware-documentation](https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware-documentation)
