Kilted / Rolling

Description

The Concepts / Intermediate Concepts / Executors doc page does not currently mention the EventsExecutor, which has been around for a bit now and also has an experimental Python version available as of Kilted.

I don't know enough about executors to do it justice, but I wanted to leave this issue here for someone who may.

@sea-bass thanks for creating issue.

i think that we do not have EventsExecutor in official documentation just because it is still maintained under experimental namespace. but as you pointed out, it has been there especially rclcpp one, probably we could start discussion on promoting EventsExecutor to non-experimental namespace and official documentation?

[sea-bass]

This sounds great @fujitatomoya -- I have not yet used EventsExecutor myself, but maybe it's still worth putting it in the main documentation with a parenthetic "(experimental!)" on the side?

This way people can try it (and find bugs!), and if/when it is fully promoted, the doc PR would be to simply remove a disclaimer?

[fujitatomoya]

i cannot disagree with that!
