You should probably come up with a list of these many packages to gain the interest of people here.
so, depends on the people, the interest, etc the idea could be possible or not.
The idea is always possible. ;-) The question is rather whether enough people are willing to do the grunt work. With the Debian Med project I gained the experience that starting with real work and presenting something that exists is the best way to convince people to join the project. The amount of work I had to do for this project convinced me, that engaging in one CDD is work enough to not start another one myself - so I can hopefully be helpful but not on the top of the activities for some other CDD. (As a physicist by profession I would feel competent for a Debian Physics CDD but I stay away from this job for simple time limitations.)
Also, I don't know how to put this in a debian-scince cdd.
I would strongly advise to start with a tasks file inside debian-science like you can find in the SVN at svn://svn.debian.org/cdd/projects/science/trunk/debian-science/tasks Just follow the scheme of the other tasks files and add the packages you consider relevant. This might be a good test case whether there is really enough stuff for a separate Debian Robotics.
