Bug#804825: ITP: ros-angles -- Robot OS set of simple math utilities to work with angles

[Wookey <wookey@wookware.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

We (Robotics section of Debian Science team) are packaging 
ROS (Robot OS: http://www.ros.org/) for Debian. ROS uses   
many packages already in Debian, but also has a set of   
core/toolchain/build-system packages which are not yet 
uploaded. This package is part of that ROS system.

Most of the packaging work is already done, and available at
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/ros/
 
  Package name    : ros-angles

  Description     : Robot OS set of simple math utilities to work with angles

 This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). The utilities cover simple
 things like normalizing an angle and conversion between degrees and
 radians. But even if you're trying to calculate things like the
 shortest angular distance between two joint space positions of your
 robot, but the joint motion is constrained by joint limits, this
 package is what you need. The code in this package is stable and well
 tested.  There are no plans for major changes in the near future.
