  Description     : Orocos Component Library

The Orocos Real-Time Toolkit (RTT) is not an application
in itself, but it provides the infrastructure and the
functionalities to build robotics applications in C++. The Orocos
Component Library is a set of components in libraries.

- why is this package useful/relevant? is it a dependency for another package? 

It's a complement for the orocos-rtt library. To have the complete
orocos-toolchain you need it. Also, helps to develop components with the
orocos-rtt library.

- do you use it? 

Yes, we use it at the lab where I work.

- if there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it
- compare?

ROS is another framework.

- how do you plan to maintain it? inside a packaging team?

Inside debian-science team. I have done a preliminary work in:

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/orocos/ocl.git/

- are you looking for co-maintainers? do you need a sponsor?

Yes, both. Any help will be welcome. It's a orocos is a complex package.
