Dear Andreas, I would have been happy to do the job directly but I currently do not have access to a running debian machine I can "control" (have devscripts installed) and I lack time/HD space for a VM install. It perhaps could make sense to have it on alioth? (no troll intended - if it can be categorized as such)
So my suggestions, on the packages I know/use, if this can be useful: coinmp logic, mathematics, numerical computation It's a C-API to COIN, a linear/ILP optimization solver (with branch and cut, cut generation...). coinbc, coinsymphony, coincg are there already. It would be logical to put coinmp there too. collada-dom viewing (given that it is in debian-science) collada is a format/initiative for 3D models exchange. I see collada-dom is a "Document Object Model/XML" version. Would be more a "graphics' package for me than a science one (personal opinion, arguable, YMMV). evolver mathematics, physics, numerical computation Evolver is a minimal surface optimization tool (variational optimization), math/numerical computation because it is a numerical variational optimization, physics because it allows to model eg. liquid/solid interface. toulbar2 machine learning, physics, logic, mathematics, numerical computation optimization on discrete graphical models. Machine learning/Physics because it solves "maximum a posteriori" on Markov Random Fields used in ML and statistical physics. Logic, mathematic, numerical computation because it is also a general discrete optimization tool that can solve both logical or numerical NP-complete decision problems. Kind regards, Thomas
