The only thing the node publishes is a Laserscan, well because it is a 2D Lidar. but it might be worth while to convert it to a Pointcloud message and publish a laserscan and a Pointcloud topic

According to sicks lms 11x data sheet, the Lidar has a min range of 0.5m and a max range of 20.0m but right now it is set to 0.01 for min range and 20.0 for max range. So min range should be adjusted to reflect Sicks data sheet

Right now, the code sets the laserscan reference frame to whatever the frame_id param is set into but doesn't send a transformation out so I should probably add it to where it can send a transform out?

These have not been updated since the name change.
